Debt Free and Analyzing Deals in San Jose & Sunnyvale, CA

Hey Everyone!

I'm so honored to be a part of this community!

I have been "house hacking" in Sunnyvale, CA for over 4 years. I rent rooms mostly to professional interns for Google, LinkedIn, Stanford Hospital, Apple, NASA, and plenty other businesses. Airbnb and Craigslist have been more profitable for me than the others. I make enough to break even on all housing expenses and have a great EA tax guy who helped get money back at the end of the year.

In 2016/2017, I'm looking into Value Added investing either Flip or BRRRR.... San Jose is my alma mater, so I'll be looking to buy SFH or multi-family out there under FHA. Do you have experience in SJ with FHA? The FHA multi-family (2-4 units) are super resonable in the $1 million range.

Looking for a loan agent to help me with FHA for mutli-family in value added REI. Let me know if you have any recommendations?

Oh yea. And I paid off $18k in debt in 10 months. Curious how I did it? 

Well, that's me in a nut shell. Say hey and I'm super excited to talk with more South Bay Area California folks!

-Desiree
