No lie, you have some of the best personal finance and investing videos - hands down. A lot of other RUclipsrs lean too heavy on self promo and get side tracked but you keep it straight to the point and give a no BS look at house hacking. You're also easy to relate too ... normal life but focused on big picture and taking steps to become financially independent. Good stuff, thank you!
Thank you Evan! This is such a kind comment and I'm glad you're appreciating the way I'm trying to create content. Your support helps keep me motivated!
Congratulations on your first investment property! I started with a duplex 8 years ago in DC. It was the best investment I ever made. Better than my college degrees IMO. I house hacked as well. With my triplex I realized I didn't want to live so close to my tenants and so I moved out after less than a year...Both of your units are beautiful, not overly done up but still very nice. I have to stop myself from doing too much renovating...though expensive, it is addictive...However, I make sure my units are nice and somewhere I could live.
I love both floors, but the upstairs gives me a feel of more private and cozy for a single person or a couple! Both are beautifully renovated, good positive vibes, and great information!💕
We are the same age and I just bought my first house in OKC! Wish I would have known about house hacking before I purchased it. Love your channel. I just subscribed!
Thanks so much for watching :) I just posted a video analyzing a duplex in OKC. If you used FHA to buy your property, I think you only have to wait a year to get another FHA loan. So house hacking might be close in your future!
Congratulations! That’s a beautiful property! I believe that you did the right thing. I used to rent a property which was located on the bottom floor. I would express to the landlord about the noise and the tenants proceeded to make more noise just because I complained. It was a complete mess! Never again!!!
This gives me so much hope , I was stressed out about making this decision but after watching this I’m getting excited, I just hope I’ll be able to find a duplex that’s as nice as yours

Kudos to you! You did such a great job getting this place. I love the shirt and that it's so close to where black wallstreet used to be.
Love your content! Been looking into house hacking for a while & your page has offered such a relatable, easy to understand perspective! Congrats on your property, super inspiring!
Flying through all of your videos right now. I love the journey that you are on, and really appreciate you giving that beginner perspective. I saw you on a bigger pockets podcast a few days ago. It’s great to hear that you are absolutely crushing it. Keep hustling!
Just discovered your videos and I just want to say THANK YOU- my new hubby and I have always known that we want to get into real estate investing, and as we're looking at moving on from renting to buying in the next year, house hacking seems like the best way to break in to the industry. Your videos about this investment and house hacking, as a first-timer, have been so informative and real. Keep doing what you're doing and best of luck as you continue to build your real estate portflio!
I love that duplex it's so gorgeous. I love them both. The upstairs would work just fine for me. And your a bachelorette with no kids so it works perfectly.
You DEFINITELY made the right decision! Congratulations on a HUGE Milestone! 😍 I will be learning EVERY step of the way with you. And HELL FUCKING yes watched till the end. ALLL THE WAY TILL THE music stopped and the replay arrow appeared! 😂😂
Hey Lili, great video and thank you for sharing! Did you buy the property for great sunlight or to make money? If it is to make money, I think you should rent the upstairs unit and live in the downstairs unit simply because the added value of the sunroom can equal additional rental income on a consistent basis. Since you travel, Air bnb would still be great downstairs and gives favor to your long-term tenants so they don't hear footsteps. Just ensure tenants meet your criteria and respect the property.
Beautiful spaces. I love the French doors, cherry wood. If you're not home much, the upstairs was a perfect choice for you. I'd love to find a unit like this!! What a gem, Lili!!
First off I love your vids. You’ve been my number one RUclipsr for my realestate. Journey. You helped me get my first duplex. I’ve been here for 7 days now and I still can’t stop smiling. So any way my only concern would be your choice to have the Airbnb upstairs above your tenant. Depending on how often you go on trips, maybe you should move down stairs and sacrifice the foot steps for your long term tenant. But just a concern not a suggestion
Young BOSS Lady🥰 I AM beyond proud and TRULY inspired by YOU, your authenticity, your drive, your passion and super HELPFUL content 💜💜🙏🏾💜💜 My husband and I just started our multi family journey and looking for our first 4 PLEX (that is our IDEAL first property) Sometimes I tear up watching your videos because your make me feel that we can do it too. I am 52 years old and I appreciate you SO VERY MUCH abs feel very blessed to learn from you on your journey 💜💜🙏🏾🙏🏾 THANK YOU THANK YOU 🙏🏾 BTW, how do I find out about your AIR BNB calendar for your OKC property? Would love to visit to see if we can find a multi family there.🥰🙏🏾

This is great, Lili! And I must agree with you on the sunroom being the selling point of the upper unit. I'd probably put in an offer right on the spot as well! As someone who wants to house hack instead of rent when they move out within the next 12-24 months *and* being a new realtor, the few videos I've seen of yours has been beneficial. I just subscribed as well! Keep it up, and I look forward to what's to come in your future videos!
Hi Lili thank you for all of your golden nuggets you give..Its really helpful.... I definitely think the upstairs was a good pick because you hear all the noise if your downstairs... Beautiful Home!!
Beautifully done Lili! I’m like you, I like the bottom better, but you made the right choice to live upstairs. Imagine some with size 15s stomping all day while you’re trying to sleep downstairs. 😂
I like the downstairs unit better. But I think you made the best decision by moving upstairs. I have been wanting to do this same thing for a while. Great idea!
I like that hall way with the linen closet and that sun room 🔥! Love all Those windows , I would throw some pretty plants in there just like you said ❤️
The upstairs unit was a great decision that you made! 👍🏽 No footsteps over your head is the best way to live and your upstairs porch is enclosed as a sun room! 🤗 🙌🏽 Mama Mia 😘 that’s amorè I’m not Italian but, the figure of speech fits. I just started watching your videos and live your tenacity. I love your content and advice, I’m gonna follow your guidance and keep you posted on my progress! Thank you and I already subscribed!! Congratulations on your new investment you did a good job hun! 😉
Awesome Lili ! Love your videos. It’s definitely a motivation & I’m inspired to venture into a new career in real estate. Thanks for taking the time to put us in game🤎🤎🤎
i love your duplex i like the upstairs better im going to contact you because im also interested in a duplex and id like to know how you went about getting it
Lili, Ive been binge watching your videos... You make some amazing, straight to the point, easy to understand, information-packed content. I also wanna echo the sentiment below that someone shared, that you're easy to relate to as someone who is making strides towards financial freedom and independence. :D I want to house hack as well.
Both units are nice BUT, the top unit was a smart choice for your personal use of this property since you said you travel a lot for work! It is the same choice I personally would have made! Kudos to you for getting an early start with investing! ❤️
Hi, I just stumbled onto your channel liked and subscribed. Great sound quality to your video, thank you for that. I love the duplex I would have totally picked the upstairs unit to live in for myself also.
I think you made a fantastic decision just due to the fact your mostly on the road. The airbnb is a smart idea especially for the sun room, can definitely charge more for that. Making passive income on the road. Although the bottom one was my favorite lol.
Your channel is so inspiring, I’m going to watch every single one of your videos & make my goals a reality because you are showing us that it’s completely possible! Thank You!
You made the right decision living upstairs. If it were me I would have turned the lower unit into an AirBnB to double or even triple the monthly income but getting a long-term renter is good too,

Renting the top as an air bnb damn that’s smart 💪🏾
Thank you!!
RIGHT!

What a great buy! You’re videos have been so inspiring and motivating through the beginning of my House Hacking journey.
Thanks for this comment Monty :) Best of your luck on your journey and I hope you keep enjoying the content!
Just watching your video. You made a great choice staying upstairs. Keep up the good work!
Your entire property is amazing. I love seeing your entrepreneurial spirit manifested.
O soooo nice... and it's where Black Walstreet was... my God.... how blessed you are
So much valuable information in your videos! From Texas here, how is the neighborhood?
Good choice I like the upstairs as well
Upstairs...the bomb!! Love a room of windows!
Super dope! I love the fact that it’s near Black Wallstreet. Fellow Oklahoman here also looking to house hack 👋🏾
This home is beautiful! Congrats 🍾
Definitely love the 2nd floor better. ✅Sunroom and ✅No footsteps above you.. You made a great choice.
You had me at sunroom!!! I looovvveeee it! Yes plants! I definitely like the upstairs unit better solely because of the sunroom!
Nice duplex!!! Downstairs kitchen is nicer, but I still would have chosen upstairs too!
Thank you!
Came for the house tour but I really loved the music you added to it. I'd choose the upstairs just for the sun room
Glad you enjoyed! Thanks for watching :)

Love the french doors downstairs, beautiful property congrats
Thanks so much!
How about the numbers? purchase price, interest rate? ROI? Cap rate? type of loan? Great vid!!!! congrats on your first property.
Exactly! I was also looking forward to the numbers. Especially how the rental downstairs and the Airbnb works with the PITI
She said that on the previous video.
Exaxtly Missing the whole point

Trust me you made the right decision. You don’t want footsteps keeping you up at night. Always choose upstairs units if you have to
CONGRATULATIONS 🎊🎉 ITS A WONDERFUL PROPERTY ✨
I love the upstairs unit better than downstairs. ❤
I love it! This is what I want to do in the DMV.
That's a beautiful place, you definitely made the right decision!
Just found your channel and already love it!
Big congratulations 🍾🎉🎈🎊
Wow I am so grateful that I found your channel this is amazing content! thank you for sharing your journey!

Great job Lili!
Awesome tour and awesome property! Sounds like you found a killer deal!!
Thank you, I agree!!

I like the upstairs apartment.
Hi Lili thank you for all of your golden nuggets you give..Its really helpful.... I definitely think the upstairs was a good pick because you hear all the noise if your downstairs... Beautiful Home!!
Both floors are nice but the upstairs sunroom sold me. Congratulations.
I’m so proud of you my sister 🤝🏾👏🏾👏🏾👍🏾GOD BLESS don’t stop keep building your EMPIRE 😆
Beautifully done Lili! I’m like you, I like the bottom better, but you made the right choice to live upstairs. Imagine some with size 15s stomping all day while you’re trying to sleep downstairs. 😂
Good point! Those size 15 folks are so obnoxious sometimes lol ;)

Amazing! Where'd you get the couches? They look so comfy!
Small, local furniture store! They're awesome :)
Awesome I like the upstairs unit with the sunroom. Do you teach whole selling?
