I have sold multiple houses w/o realtor and bought my current home in the same way.

As anyone try house hacking in El Centro California.

They exist. 

**Deadline**This serves as a reminder if you have a house/cabin in Sevier County (unincorporated areas) that you are currently using or intend to use as a Short Term Rental, today is the deadline to apply for the Short Term Rental Permit.

I understand that reading is valuable, which is why I'm curious to know which book you would recommend for a beginner like me to start with.I have yet to buy my first property but my goal is to house hack every year,  while buying and renting properties to hold long-term until my portfolio brings more cashflow than my W-2 job.

After moving in they began to complain of a cat urine smell (which does not exist) and demanding that I replace the carpeting.  

Here is my conundrum: I have a duplex that I house hacked back in 2018. 

If the intent is to self manage and believe partnering where resources can be shared, that's a different story and have seen it done in ways that added efficiencies that wouldn't exist without pooling portfolios.

So my son and his family just checked into a beach house in Jupiter FL.

I really want to get into flipping houses if not at least working on the in my own time, however; I am worried about the time and money aspect.
