Buy to Live or Buy to Rent? A Homeowner’s Guide to Building Wealth Through Real Estate

Thinking about buying your first home—or wondering if that money might work harder as an investment? Join us for an educational, discussion-driven meetup where we’ll break down the real-world trade-offs between buying a home to live in versus buying one to rent out.
This seminar is ideal for W2 earners and homeowners exploring their next financial move. We’ll compare the numbers, risks, and long-term potential of each option—especially in a market like San Francisco, where appreciation is strong but monthly cash flow is often tight.

What we’ll cover:

  • Should you buy a home now—or invest your savings into a rental?
  • How to scale from one property to multiple units
  • Real examples: $300k in savings → different paths
  • Pros, cons, and hidden costs of each strategy
  • Local market insights: SF rent control, ADUs, and appreciation trends

Format:

  • 1-hour presentation
  • Followed by Q&A + open deal-sharing and networking

Whether you’re just getting started or ready to take the next step, this session will give you clarity and a framework for making smart real estate decisions.

RSVP today—space is limited!
