@Deb Markland As you start, set things up to save on taxes from the start.

what websites you use for perfects notifications and alerts without glitches. i like to set up daily alerts on say sfh properties from 100k-150k withing specific city, county, zip code where property built year 2000 and later not older like that

I will probably set a date to go in person with plans and see what they advise.Just wondering what I can do on my part to confirm this is posible and to protect my self in the process.

@Jaylin WarnerThat’s a really smart approach, sounds like you negotiated that deal well and structured it in a way that sets you up long term.

I wouldnt kick yourself too much for the higher priced SD purchase, everyone buys with their own set of priorities and needs at that given time!

It's great that you're an alum, you've got a head start on understanding the market and a tenant's perspective.I've been a student housing specialist in Binghamton for almost ten years and have seen a lot of changes over that time.

A wall added to divide the living area from the bedroom and an egress window in the bedroom.I have not priced out for the area but I assume I can rent it out for 600/700 Looking to see does this blur the lines of house hacking or is this considered a full on "ADU" within the property.

I did a house hack in Columbus, Ohio in 2017

You’ll learn more in that first year of being both tenant and landlord than most people ever do reading about it.Stick with it you’re thinking like an investor already, and this first move can set you up for a lifetime of opportunity.

You should develop a policy for whom you will reject and follow fair housing laws.
