I am still very new to real estate investing so just trying to learn on overview of them, however so far BRRRR sounds appealing.

I also have no interest in being in the car wash business, or the laundry business, or the AirBnB business, things like that which seem to appeal to a good number of people, but not me.I like to KISS, and just focus on market rate rentals, 12 to 18 month leases.

This means you can generate passive income without the constant hands-on involvement required for STRs, making LTRs a more appealing and practical choice for your situation.

While an FHA loan (3.5% down) is often appealing for house hacking, it might not be the best choice for you due to higher interest rates and mortgage insurance (MIP) that lasts for the life of the loan.Other Options: Conventional Loan (Best for Long-Term Savings) Requires 15-25% down for a duplex (but with $60K, you could still do 15%+).

-While rent would be more expensive month by month, the idea of being able to take my equity out of my home and also being able to reduce annual repair costs, property taxes, etc. does seem appealing to me. 

And I totally agree with the idea that curb appeal matters, even with distressed properties.

I was given the opportunity to appeal the decision, and provided proof of new ownership and property management, but Air BNB is maintaining their ruling to delete the listing for being duplicated. 

@Marcos De la CruzHave you ever appealed the property tax increases on your Dallas rental?
