@Allen Maris great point, I was leaning towards seeing if I could find something ideally in Goleta but open to Ventura/Oxnard or Lompoc area to house hack.

Happens every day... personally I set up a UTMA account with E*Trade in 1992 that worked out well.

I've listed some comps and currently listed properties below.Comps: 2212 Henneman Ave Baltimore, MD 21213 (0.7 mi) Sold June 2020 Sold Price $149,9002035 E Preston St Baltimore, MD 21213 (0.7 mi) Sold July 2020 Sold Price $129,9002103 E Chase Street Baltimore MD 21213 (0.6 mi) Sold Aug 2020 Sold Price $165,000Currently Listed:1711 N Wolfe St Baltimore, MD 21213 $125,0004 days 3 bd/1 ba1912 E Lanvale St, Baltimore, MD 21213 $145,00070 days 3bd/2ba2119 E Oliver St, Baltimore, MD 21213 $165,000 40 days 3bd/2.5 ba

I always told myself it was a goal to buy property before 30, but that doesn't mean I have to.My ideal situation: I'd love to make a purchase of a condo/townhouse or LOW-maintenance SFR with the intention of using it as a "home-base," renting out rooms either long-term leases or short-term/vacation rentals (even my own room while I'm traveling for 3 weeks - 3 mo at a time).

Our ideal investment situation is a multi-family home that we can house hack, but we are also very open to single family homes.

The gunk is more a subjective opinion of what an ideal looking one should be.

Ideally I want to get rid of the property though since it's built in 1890.

@Stephen E.

It was an ideal ancillary business.
