Really enjoyed this podcast (made me run 20 more mins at the gym to finish the whole thing!)

@Joe PrillamanMy advice to myself would be to house hack sooner.

The more I think about it, I keep kicking myself for not doing multi-family sooner.

Sooner or later you will find your BIG MONEY PARTNER.....jim

the BRRRR strategy advises to refinance after 12 months, but can you refinance sooner?

The benefit to this is that I could get started sooner since it wouldn't be owner occupied, so I don't have to wait for my apartment lease to lapse, and the experience itself could be very worthwhile in my education, but I'm wary of starting out with a partnership right off the bat.

But the "just in case" part is what is making me think that I will be consulting a CPA and using QuickBooks a lot sooner than expected.

We have a very high rental demand in our market as well, so this strategy is good for getting into properties sooner than you might otherwise and get those tenants paying your mortgage down. 

If I'm use to giving the landlord the rent check on the 1st, and suddenly I have to give it to him 2 days sooner, it could very well I'm one paycheck short.

I actually move much much sooner, like when 85% offers get ignored and other indicators.
