Ready to dive in 😊

[Keri Win]

Hello all,

Long time lurker who is ready to take the dive. I live in the suburbs of Atlanta and I am ready to rent my current home and buy a second. My plan is to rent my current home and buy a home in the Lilburn, snellville Lawrenceville area with a basement apt and rent out the basement to house hack. I will be getting financing through a local credit union. Has anyone here done this with success and of so any advice?

Keri - I like the idea of house hacking in Gwinnett!

There are a smaller amount of 'multi-generational' family style homes that might work for you. Not sure what pricepoint / school district you're looking for but I have been fairly active on that side of town with one of my clients.

Also, there is typically some small multifamily inventory to look but it gets competitive - I'd ask your loan officer at the credit union if they are able to originate owner occupied loans for two family - four family properties.

Feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions - happy to help!
