Quote from @Kyle Carter: I want to start buying houses and placing Section 8 tenants in them, but I need some help figuring out where to start.

Quote from @Evan Polaski: @Jay Hinrichs, while I wasn't going to call them MLM, I did attend an Armando Montelongo (A&E's Flip this House from mid 2000's) seminar at a hotel conference room in 2007 or 08, which was the free funnel to spend $1,500 for a three day seminar or $25,000 for an in-person mentorship.I have seen similar promoted with Christina and Tarrek from Flip or Flop more recently.I didn't start realizing how profitable education can be until the last 5 or so years.  

Traditionally I have sold the builder land and loaned him the money to buy the land and build the house with us splitting up the profits when it sold. 

I own my own house and I own some land out of state, so I have assets I want protected.I have quotes and will be purchasing an insurance policy that provides 1 million in landlord liability and I can also purchase an additional 1 million in an umbrella policy.My question is, is it even possible, or has anyone heard of a landlord getting sued and losing over $2 million on a simple duplex?

. - Your return on equity with this house is terrible. 

My main concern about actual house hacking for a few years in a row is that we don't want the kiddos to have to change schools once we relocate up there.I'm thinking about getting an appreciation-oriented duplex/triplex in a pricier market with good schools that we could stay in for several years, and saving for an actual cashflow property that'd we buy as an investment property instead of a house hack.

Quote from @Matthew Samson: We plan to turn our current house hack into a long term rental.

ya were we live ( personal resi) we have humungus doug fir trees 100 plus fee tall basically surrounding out lot and if one of those falls on your house it can destroy the house and if your really unlucky it can squash you..

I’ll have a little bit of work to do at the house before it’s rental ready your welcome to pop in and check it out or we can try and grab a coffee one of these mornings 

Can function as either co-living or one large multi-generation single family house.
