@Borys Pawlowski office in Roselle and live in St Charles but we also manage many properties in and around Algonquin.  

I house hack a duplex, where I live in one unit, and list the other unit as a STR, located in Walnut Creek, CA.

We have a residential loan on the prop now and live in the fixer while we're renovating.

Then, a landlord's challenge is getting a S8 tenant to live in a lower Class area. 

Good evening, My name is Sebastian Lough and I am a Texan currently living in Australia but moving back to Texas in December.

. #1 because you will be living there yourself and can address issues as they come up. #2 because most property managers are too overwhelmed with the volume of units they manage to give you personalized, meaningful service. 

Plumbing/electrical etc are just repairs< same as if you were living there.

Ideally I would try to get a 3/4 unit property somewhere in DC proper, PG County or Montgomery County (Takoma Park/Silver Spring), live in one unit and rent out the others. 

Get it going, get it live and you can always change/modify it.

Been listening to Real Estate Rookie and BP channel for a little bit now and this is my first time posting in the forum.I’m currently living in WA State and own a home that is under a VA Loan.
