House hacking with a family
Hi BP Community!
You guys are awesome and I really appreciate this community. I wanted to ask if anyone out there has had success house hacking with a family and how you approached it and what types of properties you bought. I believe this may be the key for most people to get started. My wife and I have discussed some of the options to move forward with our REI journey, however we have a baby at home and 2 dogs and might not make ideal neighbors in a typical duplex triplex, although it may also be a temporary living situation until we move on to the next investments.
Really looking for stories or even references to podcast/webinars where this is discussed.
