I'm looking for a place with a strong community vibe, a progressive atmosphere, diverse population (especially 25-35 crowd), and access to tech/startup meetups and co-working spaces.My key challenges/questions for this community:Budget & Pet-Friendly: Finding 1BRs under $1000 that are genuinely pet-friendly (dog, no breed restrictions ideally) is tough.

Calculate this on a post-tax basis because real estate as a business may give you more deductions than your W-2 income.I built a model out for many years and tracked my progress year-to-year until I achieved my goal, then kept on tracking it as I no longer had that W-2 safety net if something went wrong.

I have tremendous confidence in that area long term but only planning on holding something for five years is riskier, given interest rates are high and you'd likely make little progress on the principal / not build up a ton of equity before selling (meaning it would have to appreciate quite rapidly for you to come out ahead).
