Getting into House Hacking

[Brayden Libby]

Hello all! I'm 19 and I am looking to get into house hacking as my introduction into real estate investing. I still have about a year left until I can consider buying a house. In the mean time, I want to understand where some of the pitfalls lie in starting house hacking. I am an avid listener of the BP Podcast and have read several of their books, but I want to take the high level view of house hacking down into the some of the overlooked but very important parts of this type of investment. Thank you for taking the time to read over this!

Hey Brayden. Great job getting started at such a young age. By getting in here and asking questions, you're on the right track. For a solid resource on house hacking, I'd recommend reading Craig Curelop's book on the subject. Brandon Turner's book on landlording will also be a valuable resource if you will be self-managing (I'd recommend self-managing since you'll be living there already). Feel free to reach out if you have specific questions.
