But intention was to hang it and use it when I buy my next home and potentially sell my current one.

In today’s high interest rate, high priced homes market, just trying to find descent cash flow is seriously challenging.  

Looking back at it, I wish I owned the home and rented out the rooms instead.

Here are some tips I use to keep with it.I schedule my gym time in calendar, just like another meeting.I built a gym at home in my basement (right next to my office) as I prefer that to going to a crowded gym.I shop once a week and focus on mostly healthy food.

looking to buy a home less than 600k in 2024 soon,and have future plans of renting it after couple of yearsWhich below areas are better in terms of appreciation for future selling or renting in 2 years?

Start small with a single-family home or multi-family property.Good luck!

The best tip I can give you ask a flipper or a new construction home builder if you can shadow an entire project, maybe run errands for them and deliver supplies to the job.Get on the job every day, best way to learn the process, every municipality is a little different, my experince is from Milwaukee, I would have to learn a lot, even if it were close by like Chicago.

If you know the game and are scaling up, I would go straight to a 4/5 bedroom. 2 and especially 3 bedroom homes are the doldrums in most markets.

I’m trying to get into single family home real estate and I have been trying to get a feel for the type of cash flow involved.

They have gone up substantially, but not at the same pace as home prices.
