We have enough of a down payment to go up to $300k, but we were looking to stay in the $200-250k range.

My landlord sold the house I'm currently staying in, so I have to put my deal hunting on hold.

Told him to stay a bit longer, put some more money away, because you probably won't have another chance in life to live almost for free, at $100/month room and board.Several years went by, my dad called, asked whether my brother should pay $90K down or pay $180K all cash for a townhouse.

Also, setting up keywords (by clicking the little bell on the top right corner) will help you stay informed on all the topics you're interested in.Best of luck to you and your husband!

No, but I stayed in a AB&B with one, seemed fine.

Stay tuned for everybody screaming when the stock market corrects again.

I would just live in it for the year and then rent it out and stay with the plan to house hack the multifamily.

That family will probably stay in that house forever.

I currently have a tenant that wants to stay. 

Because my goals are aligned with staying in a specific area and not out of state investing. but if  the numbers you want to get ($150 a door & 10% COC) are only out of state you can either follow your numbers or stay as a local investor. but if you dont know which type of investor you wanna(aka your goals) be its gonna be impossibel to make that choice
