Thanks @Stephanie Wilson. Hope you can make the next one.

@Abby Marshall Le Did you find a steep learning curve with Buildium? I gave that one a shot and couldn't figure it out. Maybe I'll take another crack at it.

If you drive through north Texas, there are cranes and new highways and development everywhere. But property taxes are notoriously high in TX given there is no state income tax. Oklahoma City is a quiet market with small ticks in appreciation (2020-2021 not withstanding) and a stable tenant and employment base.

STRs are all about hospitality and creating an experience. I'd be concerned I could provide that in another continent. A few negative reviews or bad experiences can tank your listing.

If you're doing a househack, you can get an FHA loan for a property up to 4 units. So you could purchase a duplex/triplex/4plex with an FHA/VA loan, live in one side and rent out the other(s). You would not 'cash flow.' But you would almost eliminate your housing costs. Would it be uncomfortable/awkward, maybe. But making such a purchase would springboard you into a real estate investing career without much capital.

My first thought is would the bank be cool with borrowing against your current home to buy a new home. Because you could easily walk on the debt of your current home because you're already in your new home. In my experience, banks would only do HELOC or line of credit if you planned to occupy the property being borrowed against.
