Wait or house hack now?

Hey Bigger Pockets Community,

I'm excited and ready to hop into my first house hack. There are reasons I'm concerned.

The first is that I think the real estate market may drop. If it does I will regret not getting in at a better price point. Also, I'm worried about purchasing a property with tenants that are not paying.


I know the stars are never going to align perfectly but should I wait till the end of this year to see what happens with this whole coronavirus situation?


Thoughts?


Thanks!

Matthew, I feel the same way with so much uncertainty. Previously, I bought at the top of the market and was upside down on my mortgage for around 8 years. I look forward to reading other people's thoughts on this. Thanks for posting!
