The Realtors and investors in my network rely heavily on it.

Call 3-4 of them with 4.5-star rating or better, ask what their experience is and how they can help your situation, then choose one and move forward.You are in the most heavily regulated state in the country, and one of the most regulated/litigious places in the world.

The reason being is it's heavily STR and open ended HOA wise with moderate fees.

Honestly, when I'm happy working, the income is good, and I'm investing heavily, I'm totally content to ride this train until I feel like I want or need another change of pace.   

This first purchase is going to be my home as well and my research has shown me that a multifamily property fits exactly what I need right now, being relatively young (22), being able to save money is at a premium, I have a private bartending entertainment business of my own along with 2 other bartending jobs for extra cash to try and put towards this first purchase and would love to be able to set up a living situation where my monthly living expenses are paid for by my other renters so I can truly begin saving heavily for my first buy and hold investment purchase.

Since then, I've started a career in mission critical MEP design.Why am I here: in the 4 months since I've graduated, I've heavily focused on personal financial education.

Also on a side note when I invest in other markets that I am involved in specifically Florida and North Carolina, I work exclusively with a Real Estate Broker partner in each market and rely on them heavily for their expertise.   

I invest heavily in Old Louisville which is mainly zoned TNZD.  

I do have passive income from several other sources that pays for our housing costs and more.Decisions such as this are often heavily weighted by subjective factors, and we don't all have the same priorities.

The county, in essence, wants in excess of two months of what the property's rental value is currently.Even living in San Francisco, a very liberal and heavily taxed county, my effective tax is approximately 1% of my property's current value.In researching this issue, I read the following quote from the tax assessor:Home values have dropped 22% in the past two years but that doesn't mean homeowners will see any tax relief."
