Starting My Investing Journey - Looking at San Antonio

[Todd Thompson]

Hello BP Community!

I am just starting my investing journey, but I have been listening to BP for almost 2 years now, doing a lot of research, and getting myself into a better situation financially. I've narrowed down the cities I am looking to invest in, and San Antonio is at the top - specifically I am looking at zip codes 78205, 78215, 78202, 78212, 78209, and parts of 78204 and 78210. I am going to house hack as my strategy, and my goal is to buy within the next 6-9 months. 

Is there anyone with any experience house hacking in San Antonio? Can anyone speak to these specific submarkets/zip codes?

I have yet to speak with an agent or a broker, but will be looking for ones that are investor friendly.  

Background that may be useful:
- Currently have a remote W2 job, with no intention of leaving it
- Ideally looking for an area that provides 60/40 appreciation to cash flow, if such a thing exists 
- Happy to provide more info or details about my situation/buy box/strategy

Thanks in advance! 
Todd

Welcome to BP!

Many of the areas you listed are great for house hacking, and you can find a good deal, but some of them are not in ideal areas.

I would love to chat further about your desire to house hack in San Antonio.

I wish you all the best!

 Thanks Hamp! I may take you up on that!
