That’s just not the nature of the market anymore.For most people, I’ve found that the best strategy today is a long-term house hack—either a small multifamily or a single-family home that you live in first and eventually turn into a rental.

Defer then die  (muuuuuuuch later and naturally) 💪🏻 Great way to pass on tax free wealth to your kids 👧

Expenses can and often do increase.Let me help you out, if you do not get a fixed rate loan, your principle and interest can fluctuate.Let me help you out more…- property prices can fall- rent can decrease- RE, especially residential RE, is not typically passive- natural disasters can and do occur.- rehabs can cost more and take longer than the estimate.- your flip may not sell for the antipated ARV.- RE is not typically a get rich quick investment.  

For properties in areas prone to natural disasters, flood or earthquake insurance might also be necessary.
