Am I ready for my first house hack?

Account Closed
Posted

Hey BP! My apartment lease is coming to an end and i've been really excited about the Idea of house hacking. I really want to start taking the steps towards this goal but Im wondering if Im getting a bit ahead of myself right now. Im 21 years old, Ive been at my current job for three years, I have a 750 credit score, and almost 15k I can tap into (5k Cash, 4k Brokerage, 4k 401k). Would you guys say Im about ready to start reaching out to realtors to begin searching for what im looking for? A duplex or triplex closer to work would be amazing even if It doesnt cash flow immediately. Any suggestions for my next best actionable step?
