Best Texas area for house hacking
I am looking to buy and house hack my first home (STR/rent individual rooms in the house). I am looking to purchase in the San Antonio, DFW, or *maybe* the Austin area but I am in a bit of a standstill because I don't know which market would do best for house hacking.
From what I've seen (on Ziow) so far, the San Antonio area is the least expensive but I'm not sure if house hacking/STR does well in this market.
Does anyone have success stories in any of these markets or advice for someone who is VERY new to all this and is maybe a bit anxious about getting it wrong?
Thanks!
