house hacking is the best way to get started, period.So what about doing that and living in one room and renting out the rest out individually?

Honestly, I intended to buy this home as a primary residence to live in, but after seeing it is across the street, a light bulb went off.

Cold calling building owners, mailer campaigns, text campaigns, online community groups, lender referrals, live auctions. 

While I've reached out to several assisted living brokers, many seem to focus on larger, more institutional-sized ALFs, rather than portfolios of smaller residential assisted living homes like ours.

I live in the Northern California area and hope to invest in many different markets. 

I live in California and travel nurses get paid very well here. 

I live in Carlsbad, and they have strict guidelines for STR properties.

I'm trying to figure out which type of investment appeals most to me and my goals - it seems they all do and have different pros and cons that come with them when I sit down to analyze.Like many, my end goal is to escape my 9-5 and be able to live off of my real estate investments.

Padsplit started up in Arizona at the beginning of 2023.Co-living or rent by room is not new to Arizona. 

Only herself will be living in the new residence and daughter in college probably spends summer and weekends in the residence so it is not a large household.
