I agree with the masses - hold true to the financials. 

@Marianne Ciulla, did you ever find a good financial advisor?

I'm also a grad student so my financial situation is not actually the best and I'am currently enrolled in a credit repair program (hopefully that helps with potential loans if need be) so I was thinking that maybe NACA would be a great start to purchase a multi family to house-hack and product passive income.

We combined have good incomes but I'm concerned my LLCs will make them think we're too risky (I own 33-55% of four houses and my own house with a renter in my home, all are doing well financially but I ran into this problem of really having to search with getting my own mortgage because they looked at only my percentage of income but all the debt as risk). 

You could also focus on the great financial advantages of renting/down-sizing (travel more, no more yard to care for/repairs, buy an RV, visit family more)Host a senior-focused event at your facility (maybe show an uncut version of Woodstock haha) or live music, a Social Security expert speaker or Doctor to address health issues, a fund-raiser, art show, etc. and hand out flyers with a special "one month free" coupon attached Have exercise classes for seniorsWeekly bingo nightsPromote your events for free on community calendars, newspapers, seniors sections of papersPrint door hangers and get some kids to hang the door hangers at trailer parks, older communitiesEncourage your current tenants to invite friendsRent a 15-passenger bus ($50) and offer free transportation to key eventsSponsor events at senior centers in the areaCo-Sponsor service club (Rotary, Kiwanis, etc who have many senior members) eventsPut up banners and balloons when you have eventsI hope at least a few of those ideas might spark some interest.

I am an extremely responsible, and genuine person looking to pursue passive income and financial freedom, however, I do my due diligence and am hopeful to find hard working individuals who can be honest with me back and genuinely helpful. 

The house just looks so nice compared to what we can rent... but I don't want to do something like this if it's too risky financially. 

Good day everybody, as my title suggest I’m A active Duty service member and I am looking to start my journey to financial freedom by diversifying my income within real estate options.

We'd love to hear any success stories of people house-hacking into financial freedom!
