Get a duplex or triplex and live in one side and rent the other(s).

For me, the banks are loaning 70% LTV on my properties (currently duplexes) when I refi and personally I want to keep 30% equity in each property to protect for any market correction. 

@Julian JosephNot hotels, but apartments, condos, and homes - anything you can sign a lease with really. 

Properties are a bit expensive in Riverside (as you probably know)  so it may be hard to house hack a duplex, but the more units it has the more likely you can live for free!

Right, so my folks and I have basically finished repairing a 1920's duplex in the neighborhood of Belmont.

I am having a little bit of trouble refinancing a property I own and hoping someone has run into this before.I invested in an over/under duplex 2 years ago and did the BRRRR method.

This year I’ve finished my degree and purchased my first investment property (duplex) while working my normal job.

If you come east, you can still find houses - even duplexes and the occasional triplex or {even} quadriplex - for under 100K.  ;-)... of course, you will need to re-invest 10K - 50K in many such properties.

Hello, on February 12, 2018 I authorized my tenant to call the plumber and do the job in my condo.

Hi All - I am in escrow on a duplex in Saint Joseph, Missouri and am wondering if anyone knows of a quality property management company in the area.
