First House Hack Questions

I am a student athlete at Michigan state university and am planning on starting my investing career with my first house hack. I have spent the past couple years doing research and think its time to actually start. If there are any specific tips specifically trying to rent by the room house hack in a college, like things to look for in the house, how to estimate the correct rent, or anything similar to that i'd really appreciate the advice.

Hi Brady, are you going to purchase a house? Or rent it? Go to furnished finder and airbnb to compare rents and determine your rate. It's pretty easy, just make sure you vet people you let into your house. If something feels off, or bad reviews, do not rent to them. You will have more specific questions when you start. Good luck!
