It can eat into your cash flow, but if you're earning high income from your W-2 job (I assume you are if you're buying in all cash), it makes more sense to use your time making more income versus managing maintenance requests as you scale. 

@Patricia Smith Even if someone give you a referral, what meets their expectations, may not meet yours.In our experience, the #1 mistake owners make when selecting a Property Management Company (PMC) is ASSUMING instead of CONFIRMING.It's often a case of not doing enough research, as they don't know what they don't know!

$50k of savings and 24 (assuming no family) - house hack is the first and only strategy.

Hey Santosh,As of right now you're extremely exposed regarding insurance and I'm going to assume legally as well.If the home isn't registered as a legal multi-family with the town that's something you'll have to correct ASAP and make sure the home is up to code.Insurance wise as soon as they find out what you're doing they'll cancel you as the risk has changed from a single family owner occupied home to a multi family owner occupied home.
