Looking to start hunting for my first househack
and I'm not sure what the signs of a good deal are. I'm not looking to make a quick buck, so I'm more concerned about making a smart investment that will create a positive cashflow. I recently acquired my real estate license, so I have access to MLS, and I've been saving for a few years and have 35k put away. However, I recently lost my job, and have been driving for Grubhub to pay the bills. I've never been good at figuring out the math of things, and I want to start learning. What calculations should I be making as I look at multi-families on MLS to figure out if they'd be worth their cost to me?
