@Cassidy BurnsI'm going to assume you're just brainstorming, but if you're thinking about implementing tax advice from the radio show host in the Youtube video you posted, please get a second opinion from a tax professional.I only made it through 5 minutes of the video before turning it off. 

hi Brittany so my opinion is find a group of people that you have connections with that have homes and are interested in selling them and probably your personal connections to these people is probably what you should think about when looking for deals and then get them under contract and basically promote them to your network of figure practice or whatever investor networks that you have and they’ll be investors that are looking to buy pretty much every property that’s out there and it doesn’t take much to market them.

In my opinion, you might be better going from a large market like Boston to a market with some solid fundamentals to ease your way into out of state investing - if you're looking to be in NH, then Manchester is probably your best bet. 

It really is not the best list to sent to... in my honest opinion...But alas...

So I am in the midst of searching for my first real estate investment and plan to use an FHA loan to put as low as 3.5% down to house hack- I would like to know your opinions on the following financing options for down payment and closing costs: 1.

Would appreciate any advice or opinions.

Thank you all for the advice and opinions.

I went from not knowing a thing about HOA foreclosures to understanding a fair deal of why they could or couldn't be a good deal (in addition to everyone's opinion on their ethicality...)Thank you for your input!

However, it seems that people think that a BRRRR property shouldn't be your first investment property as it takes a lot of work.In your opinion, what are some things that I need to do to make sure that my first BRRRR property is a success and not a failure?

In my opinion, the best thing to do it keep your investments separate from your vacations.
