Amazing job!  I like the staging you did also. Is that your own furniture or did you hire a company to stage it for you?  What was the hardest part of this deal?

Nice Job!!!

@Steven Stohlman Do you have a personal or business account for Instagram?

When starting out as and REI is it better to have a Personal or Business Instagram Account and why?

You could look up the Yellow Letter approach.

@Samantha Smith

It seems like you could do more research on approaching the owners of unoccupied homes and try that.

Or

Have you looked at David Greene's book Long-distance Real Estate Investing?

We are new to REI. We are looking at house hacking.

We can't seem to figure out if any of the BP can accurately help us decide if it is a good deal.

We can buy a house that has been renting the upstairs and downstairs separately for about 6 years. We plan to live in the downstairs apartment.

What criteria do we use to know if this is a good deal?

We are already paying the same amount as the basement rental price without that money building our equity.

We wouldn't need to rehab it at this time. I believe we can get it for about $100k under the current value.

@Kris L.

Maybe focus on Wholesaling in the meantime.
