Are the kids walking around the living room? 

Strategies like living in a duplex or triplex, adding an ADU, or renting by the room can help maximize cash flow while leveraging FHA or VA loans for lower upfront costs.

Hi all investor here with a sfh property in Oklahoma, I have been having ongoing plumbing issues almost every week with toilet clogs etc since last year, and recently they had to repair the sewer lines and had to excavate the backyard and living room floors costed me tens of thousands of dollars.

I live in the Lancaster PA area.I am new to real estate investing and looking to connect with any local investor.

i use apartments dot com for screening I do live locally should anything arise.

We purchased it with the intention of living in the Ground floor + BSMT apartment and renting the 2nd floor apartment.

For example, they won't need to cover your personal belongings (furniture, clothing, etc.) because you won't be living there.A landlord policy should cost about the same as a homeowner's policy; it just changes what is covered.

It has been a long process, but I am finally living in it.
