Newbie question
Hello BP family. I am 34 years of age with a high desire to break into Real Estate as an investor. As a beginner I have tons of questions, here we go!
I had a home purchased for me (not in my name) and have zero rent payments. My plan is to live there for another year or two. Should I use the first time homebuyer program to purchase my first investment property or as my first personal residence. I have no pressure to move or to begin paying rent. What makes more logical business since longterm?
