House Hack- Boston Area

My wife and I would like to house hack a Quadplex / Triplex in the Boston area. We look forward to starting our REI journey together, generate passive income, and begin to set ourselves up for the future. We understand that it is very much a sellers market right now. We have put in a handful of offers on places. We have gone to the extent of offering 100k over asking, waiving our home inspection contingency, increasing our earnest deposit to 20k, using an escalation clause in our offer, and writing a letter to the sellers. Unfortunately none of these techniques have worked thus far. Seems like we continue to get beat out by cash offers. We are looking for advice / guidance on anything else that we could possibly do to make a more appealing offer and help us secure our 1st property together. Thank you.
