House Hacking...Do property managers help you rent out by room?
House Hacking...Do property managers help you rent out by room?
I am planning on house hacking my first property and buying a 3/4 bedroom SFH, live in one of the rooms and rent out the other rooms. However, if I plan to move out of the house, can I get a property manager to rent out to tenants by rooms or is this not possible? My reasoning is renting out by room will net you more profit and cash flow per month than renting out the entire house to family and also reduce the risk and negative cash flows of vacancy due to more doors being rented out.
I am assuming most investors rent out by house but am wondering if it is wise to rent out by room and whether or not property managers also do this for investors.
Thank you.
