Thanks for the input! Definitely gives me a lot to think about and action steps to take! Appreciate everyone who commented. 
I saw a duplex I was interested in and went to check it out and definitely had all the issues mentioned above. Glad I reached out for help and it all makes more sense now.

Probably something between 150k-165k but more ideally I would want a duplex. In Houston for sure.

Thanks! Definitely want to house hack! And ideally turnkey but more than likely might have to be a somewhat fixer upper. I’m still gathering some cash but might have to look into lenders and possibly a deal as a first time home owner

People in Houston (Anyone really)! 

If you started from bottom (little to no money saved up) how did you start? 
Saved up and loans? 
Did you have a mentor?
How long did it all take? 
Anyone start with a duplex? (Want this to be my first move) 

I am interested so I have a mind frame for myself. 

Also looking for mentor (willing to just hear and observe)

Still figuring out how the technical stuff on the forum works but thanks to everyone that replied to my welcome to BP! I have been studying up on books, listening to the BP podcasts and working on building relationships and letting people know that I am into REI.
