    I’m 19; just purchased a 1bed, 1bath fourplex to house-hack. Fully rented and cash-flowing. It needs a lot of work and the purchase price reflected that. I am a contractor by trade and I’m willing for the headache so I guess that’s my “edge” ;)

    My first 10 properties were single family homes. If I could turn back time, my first 10 would be all fourplex units. Today I own 3 multi family & buying 5 more to hit my freedom number.

    Here is potentially a newer angle in the debate. Our duplex insurance with Liberty Mutual went from $1.4K annually in 2022, to $3k in 2023, and then $6k in 2024. The insurance agent said that the increased risk of multifamily rentals is driving the new rates. She went on to say that they wouldn’t even underwrite the duplex if we approached them today.

    Do the house hack every year to get the best rates as a primary. That could potentially get up to 40 units minus the one you live in. Keeping all financing conventional.

    Two tenants were there when we bought the building in 2017. The other inherited tenants ended up being evicted. Definitely our best property. It was intentional build 4-unit, nicer suburban neighborhood.

    @@TropicTrdr i love the idea! The key is finding reliable builders who are selling to investors. You can sometimes find this through turnkey providers, investor friendly brokers, or networks of investors like Kathy Fetke's Real Wealth Network. Many builders today are also offering interest rate buy downs which can give you a 5% interest loan instead of 8% . I have an episode coming soon with a lady who bought a duplex like this in Texas

    My question is 30 days out from closing a house that me and my buddy put 5 percent down on. We will be both living there and will be our primary residence. Can we legally rent out the other 2 rooms of the 3 bed 2 bath house to our friends or does it have to be 20 percent down to be able to rent out which we will start doing on our next property

    I don't know of any 5% loans that prohibit you from renting extra bedrooms. Should be fine. But you can also ask your lender to be sure

    22:08: If only we could "cancel" zoning and build tiny homes on our empty front lawns too lol...Since zoning first took root in the early twentieth century, it has invariably been used to enforce and perpetuate a uniquely American form of apartheid, shrouded in a fog of planning jargon and obtuse codes. While you will find no mention of race or class in your contemporary local zoning ordinances, the open pursuit of American apartheid forms the basis of many zoning codes still in effect today. Yes, the courts clamped down on de jure racial zoning in 1917, but court approval of economic zoning in 1926 would pave the way for de facto racial segregation…cities were quick to bring in renowned zoning framers who could provide legal cover for the same old exclusionary zoning codes.
