I understand that living in the property for your first deal helps the bank give you a loan easier for your first deal, I was wondering if anybody has experience just, going straight into buying a multi family residential property right off that bat without living it and renting all the units out, the reason I ask this is that, I live in Austin TX and work full time there, the multifamily prices are pretty expensive, so I was wo dering about buying in Kyle or San Marco's, maybe get a cheaper multi family unit there and treat as a separate project. anybody got any pointers?

Just look at rent controlled cities like San Francisco, the most expensive market in the country.

For those of you who know the San Diego region, I am going to be living around Mira Mesa, Sabre Springs, Rancho Penasquitos, and we are probably going to paying around $2,900 a month for a 3-bedroom 2-bath ~1500 sqft home.
