Here are some things to keep in mind:1) Make sure you’re running truly conservative numbers - assume higher vacancies, real repair and CapEx costs, rising taxes and insurance, and rents that are realistic, not just what makes the deal look good on paper. 2) Take the time to learn local zoning, rent regulations, and code rules before you ever make an offer, especially around NYC where non-conforming or illegal units are super common and can completely derail a house hack.3) Talk to a few investor-savvy lenders early and really understand your low-down-payment options (FHA, conventional owner-occupied, grants, assistance programs) so financing doesn’t slow you down once you find a deal. 4) And finally, build relationships with an investor-friendly agent, a CPA who works with rentals, and ideally a mentor who’s just a few steps ahead of you.
