House hacking vs Renting whole house
Hello everyone, thanks for the help! I currently live in my house with two spare bedrooms. I could house hack and rent out the other two bedrooms for approximately $700-$800 each. My mortgage is currently $1,800. OR, I could rent the entire house for about $2,000-$2,200 and move out. I would then live with a friend for about $700 per month for a few months until I find my next home to purchase and then once purchased, I can house hack that one assuming the bank will consider income from my rented house. Thoughts? I really appreciate it!
