3 simple tips:1.

I heard about house hacking this morning actually while listening to the small multifamily podcast from the other day.This site is awesome and I love that I get to connect to so many people and have countless resources at my finger tips.

Great tips!

My question is, does anyone have any tips or advice on the best way to spend this year that will continue to propel (even accelerate) our RE investment journey? 

Our ADU has a long-term tenant, so it sounds like I should be able to show the lease and inquire at the assessor's office about decreasing the tax rate to 4% then (thank you for the tip on that, Troy!).

@Aqil Dharamsey,A good handyman is worth their weight in gold, and as others have stated-- are part of your competitive advantage.   

I am fairly new to real estate investing and was looking forward on any tips or advice on how I can get started in my local area.

Its the book that really inspired me to invest out of state and offered actionable tips for out of state investors.

🤣)If you're lucky enough to put 50% down you can actually probably expect a reasonable cash flow, which is honestly a great place to be.I have not done a comprehensive market survey, neighborhood by neighborhood and zip code by zip code, to tell you (or anyone :) where the "best" area to invest is in terms of cash flow, rate of return, etc.However what I can say is that other investors have told me, and I have seen it myself over the years, that some of the "best" returns can be had in the most difficult areas.

Even with tenant present they can say their gold stash is missing but far less likely.
