House Hack in Minneapolis - First Time Homebuyers
Hello,
My wife and I want to start our real estate investing career by house-hacking in Minneapolis. Duplex, triplex or quadplex. The thought of getting our mortgage covered by tenants makes sounds ...especially with how hot the SFH market is in MPLS right now! We are looking up to about $450K with about 10% down.
Who are the experienced house-hackers out there? We'd love to hear any success stories of people house-hacking into financial freedom!
What advice would you give a couple 26 year olds looking for their first house hack? What deal metrics are crucial to crunch before making an offer on a duplex? Any general advice dealing with tenants who live under or next to you?
Thanks!

We could help you find something that fits your needs. My husband started in house hacking back in 1999. We have helped quite a few Bp users find investments. Send a colleague request and we can meet to discuss.
