If I want to house hack a MFH, should I avoid...

[Dominique M. Conwell]

Hey BP'ers,

I am new to real estate investing and for my first project, I would like to house hack a MFH with a FHA loan in the Metro Atlanta, GA area. My question is should I avoid foreclosures, or listing sites such as realtor.com, zillow.com, etc..

I know I'm looking for the deal rather than the house, but given my lack of experience. Should I stay away from locations I have to rehab or sites that would give not as fruitful deals.
