Solid House Hacking Markets?
I'm in the Statesville/Hickory area currently. I'm set on buying a MF property to house hack. Though there aren't many properties on the market here. I'm reading all these posts regarding people buying their first MF property to house hack and begin their journey. It all sounds so easy when I read it but on the flip side, when I'm searching, I am not finding any listings. That being said, what are some solid markets to consider that might be good for a first time investor? Just from the listings, I'm noticing that many MFs are in the Ohio/Kentucky/Indiana area, but I've never lived there and have no idea what the market is like.

Good evening! I have a Real Estate business servicing the Greater Cinci area. MFs are hard to find here. The market is still pretty hot and if they do get listed, they are snatched up within a day or two....especially if they are in the river cities. We are having a lot of business growth around the Covington, Newport, Bellevue and Dayton KY areas.
