House Hacking in MA - Still Relevant in 2022?

William Sullivan
  • Boston, MA
Posted

Hey All,

I'm considering a house hack on a duplex, but I'm seeing various articles stating that conventional rentals no longer work.  E.g. https://www.biggerpockets.com/...

I made  few offers back before the pandemic, and I was ready to pull the trigger on a small flip, but I lost the bid.  I've been paying rent the past two years, and I'd like to save a bit of money with 203k loan + house hack.

Is this at all still a reasonable / relevant strategy in 2022? I've been out of the loop for so long and seeing so much about short-term rentals (STR) that I question all of my prior knowledge.

Thank you!

Will

Hi William- I am not too far away in Newburyport. I would love to talk about this with you if interested. I also have some friends in the area who are looking to do the same/same position as you so they might be helpful to work with as well. Let me know!
