Looking to connect with Real Estate Rookies doing this with kids

[Khemraj Hamnauth]

New to BP. Trying to get some tips on how the more experienced investor/house hacker started your journey while raising kids at home. The motivation and work ethic is there but sometimes the energy is lacking due to having the kids suck the life out of me. Seeking assistance to start a multifamily house hack strategy using equity in my current SFH in Tampa Bay, Florida area. Want to acquire the multifamily in another market, preferably in the Northeast.

Hey Khemraj, I had three kids when I started—my youngest was 8—and I sat the whole crew down to let them know we were gonna house hack and make some sacrifices, but the goal was to buy a castle one day. I ended up house hacking my first 6 properties, and once I got the rhythm down, I moved into BRRRRs and picked up the next 27 that way. Using your Tampa equity is a smart first step—just make sure you’ve got a solid team in that Northeast market. It’s not always easy with kids, but if you keep the vision strong, it’s all worth it. Always down to connect if you want to talk strategy!
