We closed on the house Dec 2021.

There are exceptions though like you could buy a dilapidated colonial house in Merida and rehab it.

Good morningIt is working well.I expect to buy 8 houses in next 5 yearsAfter that I will start flipping but I am sorry you mistook meMy flips will be local:)

Two identical single family houses, side by side, would be worth the same, because value is based on comps.You need to learn how to underwrite an apartment.

Finally ready to take the plunge and actually start investing in real estate rather than just talk about it, so I upgraded to Pro.I'm focusing on BRRRR single family homes to start and as I do not own my own home, I am looking to house hack for my first deal.Still early in the education process and putting together my team, but excited to progress forward and hopefully connect with local investors.

Almost every house I look at has rental rates that would be equal to or less than what the monthly mortgage would be.

I suggest looking into house hacking right now. 

Sounds like it could be an awesome house hack.
