Airbnb in Pflugerville?

[Jeremy Vandermause]

My partner and I are looking at buying in Pflugerville and plan to house hack by sectioning off part of the house (2 beds/1 bath) and adding an exterior door for more privacy. Eventually we would build a tiny home in the backyard or convert the garage as well.

We’ve had a hard time looking at Airbnb comps in the area - can’t tell if there’s a lot of demand and places are booked or people just don’t Airbnb their homes in Pflugerville.

Does anyone have any experience AirBnB’ing in Pflugerville? What’s the market like? Open to general opinions or raw data if ya got it.

Thanks!

@Jeremy Househacking is a great idea in Pflugerville as well as buy-and-hold rentals. Just a precaution, the vast majority of homes in Pflugerville are in HOA communities which could restrict your opportunities for AirBnB and especially the construction of a second unit on the property. Lots are also smaller in size as the communities get newer, so you may not have enough room to build a second unit even if it would be allowed. Just make sure to do your due diligence before closing on a property.
