First time Multihome Investor

Hey biggerpockets community. So I'm a first time buyer looking to househack a multi home on long Island. Given the explosion in demand on the long island housing market. Would you suggest waiting until things cool down? Or perhaps look into a rehab deal. What steps would you advise in a hot housing market if your looking to househack the multi home? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the advice

Matt

Hey Matt. I'm big on buying real estate and waiting, instead of waiting to buy real estate. This is my advice IF you have your finances in order, including a 6-month emergency fund. I searched long and hard to buy my 1st multi-family in Suffolk County back in March of this year. Good luck and always keep learning!
