But is it better or worse than not buying anything at all?

This is why I always preach buying fewer but more desirable properties.

My question is in the current market would buying a high cash flow business where I can be an absentee owner be a better decision then investing in real estate now?

Hey @Nolan ChandlerThanks for replying to my post.Yes, I'd like to go more detail about house hacking with you.I think I'm having a hard time in analyzing which deals are good enough to buy.

It is not our job to subsidize family emergencies or let someone buy a home when they already committed to a lease term.

So, by trying to get a tenant out and replace them with another tenant you have a 50% chance they will be the same or worse, plus the expense, lost rent due to vacancy, plus any tenant placement costs with your PM.

Buy a nice house with an ADU or a DADU?

@Jake BerlinCongratulations on taking the first steps toward buying your first rental property!

We are looking at buying a park model home and land.

Let's say you could rent an apartment instead of buying and your rent is $1,200/month.
