Conventional guidelines occupancy requirements are that you’re able to occupy the property for some portion of the year, during the first year.

My first investment property happens to be my first home purchase, so my questions are hopefully basic for anyone experienced here.

I don't own in Scranton a lot of properties, But I still think 2K is a bit overpriced Especially if you make your tenants pay utilities, But I might be wrong, just wanna make you aware so you make sure before you go into any deal. 

You’re definitely on the right track by planning to open separate bank accounts for each property and the holding company.

I'm not a property casualty agent (was a long time ago - now just life/health).

If our plan owned real property with many transactions, I would use a bookkeeper.

You’ll want to focus on either finding a broker who’s okay with you doing property management or getting your own broker license.

I am considering a 12 unit multifamily property in my home market of Harrisburg, PA. 

My goal is to achieve financial freedom through house hacking and long-term rental properties.

I’m a high income W2 earner getting hosed on taxes (currently own 5 properties).
