Orlando, love the mindset — starting at 19 with a house hack will set you up big time.

Please be 100% blunt with replies because I'm trying to learn as much as I can.I'm 22 years old living in NJ and I don't qualify for much money in traditional loans, but my credit and income is good so I'm trying to get creative so I can leave my parents house.Thank you for reading!

Continue managing but change your mindset.  

It’s great to see new investors jumping in with a focus on long-term cash flow — that mindset will take you far. 

Also USAA if you, your parents or your grandparents served in the military. 

I think I will long-term rent them most likely as we are nurses and see ourselves taking care of our parents later in life, so ideally we would like to keep the homes.

That mindset of wanting to be a sponge and learn before jumping in will serve you well.If you’re open to out-of-state investing, Memphis is one of the best BRRRR markets in the country.

Sounds like you’re approaching real estate with a strong strategy and mindset, which is key.

Lastly, while preparing to take care of your parents is admirable, you have to decide if this is the best way to provide for them later in their lives.

Interestingly growing up my family mostly vacationed in Puerto Rico as my grand parents were living at the their home in Vieques for a majority of the year, in my young childhood they owned a hotel in Lincoln, NH one of the most popular mountain destinations in New England.
