I'm invested in a property near the Grove that's executing that business plan now.At a simpler level, that might mean buying a house with a garage, converting the garage into an ADU, and renting out the ADU.I think a super solid first step to get into the LA market is to househack a home or a multifamily.

I haven't had anyone jump up and down for something we have in our lake house.

Selling a house and agreed to terms with a buyer *pending inspection report*.

Real Estate Investors can play ahead of the game by learning about 1) Real Estate (of course), but not the basic stuff....all the tricks that can make you stay one step ahead of your competition. and 2) Construction - How a house is built and how to fix, remodel and add value.So for #1, you can just make this forum an addiction.

My interest in real estate investing started from reading books and listening to podcasts, which got my thinking about exploring house hacking as my first venture.

I'm looking into what it takes to buy my first house/multifamily property out of state.

How much would you actually make over what you are doing now? 

So from funding balt city row houses to loudoun county :)

Being that I work in education, and I am starting from nothing (with some shared debt), I am looking at a house hack.
