Thanks Ethan 🙏🏻

Much appreciated with the vid. In the RTP area as well so this is definitely good info to have. Though definitely would be curious on a more in depth into the calculator as well. Sort of a 'What I needed to know when I added it to the calc and why?' As I know I'm still a bit knew to real estate ventures like this. But house hacking does sound really appealing so long as you can keep consistent tenants and such.

Question I have a video interview from Redfin and I’m debating if I should leave my full job working in the mental health department to do real estate full time any tips on if I will make ends meet financially if I leave my full position any advice?

The Redfin job is it associate or actual full time sales agent? The former might not get you enough tours to earn a full time living, despite the dollar per hour being amazingly high. But I hear those who become salary plus commission agents with Redfin can do quite well if they handle the volume of transactions well

How did you lock down a 3% interest rate?

Hi, apologies for any confusion. My rate was 6.75%. I’m assuming that was the example rate that was in my calculator that you saw. However, I do know some FHA and especially VA people who are taking on assumable loans in our market premium prices 3% rates. Pretty competitive though.

@@Itsbenjamincarver Hey! Thank for your answer. Can you get a 3% rate with a VHA loan? I didn't know about it. I thought that if you get a VHA loan, it will be the market rates...

@@venusdyk637 many lenders will allow you to assume an FHA or VA loan, especially the latter. In theory if a property is listed as having an assumable loan then they have already gotten permission from the lender.

I'm impressed with the ingenuity and professionalism that you are exhibiting so early in your adult life. Good for you.
