Hi everyone, I live in Nashville, TN.

I'm looking to purchase a multifamily property and live in one unit. 

You have to live somewhere, so if you can have most of that paid for by someone else, it's the quickest way to amass more cash and buy more properties. 

Invest where you live is best.Get  a great Agent Get a great Contractor Get a Mentor to make it happen Phoenix area doubles in value every 4 years.

You can hold it for 2 years and not pay any capital gains tax if you live in the property as your primary home.

I live in that now.

I live in the Bay Area and I want to get into real estate, but there's just not a lot on the market right now and what is on the market is selling for hundreds of thousands of dollars over asking price.
