Hello,
I sell technology to school districts in Washington. I have the opportunity to move out to Washington and have properties in Ohio. My goal would be to purchase and rent out after a year. I would be looking at doing this next year. Looking for someone with experience in that territory.

Good morning!
I currently own two properties and one of my friends living in the city of Chicago is looking to get out into the suburbs and rent by the room or house hack. Anyone able to help? I can get you in touch with him.

Hello,
I just purchased a duplex in Louisville, Ohio and close soon. I am 25 years old and this is my first investment property. Would you advise a young person like myself to do something like this?
purchase price 290,000 at 7.35 rate
Can get about 2500-2600 a month in rent.
happy to answer other questions but I'm very new to this so feeling iffy about it.
What does the area and neighborhood look like? Are you planning on keeping it for a whole or what's your plan with it?

Hello,
I was just told that I cannot owner occupy a duplex because I bought a home in Oct 2024. Now I'm having to look at 25% investor loan.
is there any way to get a loan on investment property for less than 25% down?

Hello,
New investor here. 25 years old and Ive learned so much in the past year from watching bigger pockets. Looking for some guidance on setting up an LLC or trust for a duplex that I am in the process of purchasing. I am owner occupying this unit so I didn't know if there was a problem with putting property in LLC. I close 3/21 and would appreciate any insight that someone has.
I plan to move out of my house and have that rented too. Should that be a seperate LLC?
