Eventually, I am looking to possibly expand to larger commercial properties with 5+ units. 

House hacking is often promoted as the easiest way to get into real estate—buy a property, rent out part of it, and let tenants cover your mortgage.

We ran it past our real estate agent and lender — but I'm all for shoring up.

You can also check meetup.com or search Facebook for real estate investment groups, clubs, or meetings in your area.

As we wrap up the year and look ahead to 2025, the real estate market continues to present unique challenges and opportunities for investors, brokers, and lenders alike.

But we also do occasional drive-byes and annual inspections to see how the tenants are caring for it and hopefully catch anything that is potentially damaging before it gets real bad.Some of our clients prefer to pay for the lawn care and we charge a lawn care fee to the tenants.

In the real world, its hard if not impossible to get all 4 aspects on a single deal.

The real estate agents recommended I look into Nomad (real estate tech) company for property management and finding tenants for the property.   

Jumping into real estate investing is exciting, but it can also feel overwhelming at first.

I'm a real estate investor in other parts of the country but not NY due to the extremely high buy in price.
