Do you tell your tenants of your househack that you’re the owner?
House hackers (specifically rent by the room house hackers), do you tell your tenants or prospective tenants that you’re the owner? Do you say that you’re the manager of the property?
I‘ve heard it many times that you shouldn’t tell your tenants that you’re the owner. I’m getting ready to list my rooms and I just wanted to get some feedback from those more experienced in this than I am. Any tips are welcome!
