Advice on first deal

[Devin Slone]

So when learning I hear that location is number 1 thing to focus on and I agree. I also hear that when you’re starting to look and get started in your hometown which is somewhere you know very well. I have found deals in my home town that will cashflow for me BUT, my hometown isn’t the nicest area anywhere other than by the park and university. So location isn’t ideal here. What should I focus on? Would be my first deal as I’m in college!

@Devin Slone, given that you're still in college, house hacking your first deal should be your top priority. Read, "The House Hacking Strategy" by Craig Curelop to understand the concept. House hacking from one property to the next is a powerful momentum builder to scale your portfolio. Do not undermine this strategy.
