I'm in a unique situation and I want to take advantage..
I live in a single family high ranch. The upstairs is being rented on a 6 month lease, and I live downstairs.
I'm 30, single, and debt free.
Here is the unique situation.
I live in my parents house by myself as my parents live in Europe.
I take care of the property and two other rental properties. I pay them $700 a month just to help put towards their mortgage.
I'm currently living in the suburbs about 2 hours away from major city, and to be honest I don't want to live here anymore and want to be in the major city.
I have a few friends I could couch surf with while I look for a place in the city.
I am self employed so I don't need to stay here.
Now, I am trying to figure out what is the best route to take and have been reading up about house hacking, which in a sense is what I am doing right now.
However, I am debating on either renting my downstairs to a friend, a 6 months lease, OR Airbnb
I feel Airbnb would be my best bet for most income, although it might be slow during the winter months.
Just looking to get some advice on what routes I should be taking.
I also do overlanding, which is camping out of my truck so I honestly don't mind living out of my truck a week at a time, truly enjoy it and find complete peace, but want the downstairs to be making some sort of income.
