Our plan is to use the "Sneaky tactic" and for the next few years, the plan is to buy a house that needs a little TLC, fix it up as we live in it and move on to buy another house until were tired of doing it or reach a decent income.

The house is a smaller colonial with 3 beds and 1.5 baths.

Run the house hacking numbers.

Investor who bought house next door to me said he is having difficulty finding "good" tenants. 

There is demand for it and demand in this area for affordable housing, in a tourist area where plenty of people have vacant, second/third homes for seasonal fishing and hunting.

Quote from @Tina Lee: I bought an old condo, and had my handyman and his guys went to do some work at house.

Buy a house cheap, rehab it, and keep it for a rental for a few years.

I would like to get into the flipping game, buying a house in the market wherever she can get a contract in, and my full time job is to flip the house.

Renovated the inside of the house.

Good question - I've been house hacking on this property so your question made me do some math.Currently I rent a one bedroom studio for $1,100 which covers the $899 mortgage but not other expenses.
