Getting Creative with Lease Option
Hey everyone! Fairly new to Real Estate investing, and I had a question for all of you! Recently, I began reading up on house hacking, and it definitely seems like a very great way for me to start, seeing as I work full time still and am still learning the ropes. Before I had discovered REI, I had gone into major debt, and virtually ruined my credit score and chances of me getting a Mortgage. SO my 2- part question is this: a) Is it a good idea to look for a lease-to-buy option combined with house hacking {assuming owner allows for master lease option}, b) would the house hacking equity I put into it actually count as my equity I put into the place??All answers are appreciated!
