3 Time House Hacker from Minneapolis

[Dumisani Thomsen]

I've lurked on the forums and listened to the BP podcast for a couple years now, so it's time to join up!

I'm a 3 time multi-family house hacker from Minneapolis (2 duplexes and 1 triplex). My wife and I got started in REI in 2018 with our first house hack. We scaled to 8 units in less than 3 years in 2021 using house hacking so we're big fans of the strategy. We also did some small value add renovations to each of our properties.

Our goal is to scale up to at least 16 units next year with a focus on small multi-family properties. I'm looking forward to making more connections!

Welcome @Dumisani Thomsen! I'm also a serial househacker in Minneapolis (2, hoping to do #3 in 2023 or 2024). The BP community is awesome but I highly recommend joining some local facebook groups that are more active and going to investor meetups. I can send you some good ones if that's of any interest to you? I have no affiliation, just enjoy the value I've gotten from them - both informational and relationships too! I'd love to hear more about how you structured your househack stack financing wise and what you're looking to do to scale up to 16 units
