House hacking will also give you some personal "property management" experience.

A while back I had one in my personal home that did that.An American Standard brand.

Eventually, once the units have appreciated a bit and the mortgage has been paid down to the point we have 20% equity, we split the parcels into individual town homes and then she refinances her unit out and I refinance the three units out or sell them. 

I personally hate the plastic shower walls where they come in several pieces, like one piece for each wall.

If I were renting it out and not refinancing I wouldn't take that cost up front personally.

If you do choose to invest remotely, go meet your team in person.

Hi Federico, it won't matter if it is owned by a person or LLC.

At closing I paid all of my insurance for the year so right now it is closer to $600/month.

These fees can be in the tens of thousands and must be paid in advance.

Personally, even with interest rate uncertainty and election year hysteria, I am building a stronger and stronger conviction around the fact that I need to get a little more aggressive in acquiring more income properties.
