Successful (or Unsuccessful) House Hacking Stories

Vincent Egan
  • Berkley, MI
Posted

The past couple months some friends and I have been trying to get a start in real estate investing. As we are still in college we thought that house hacking could be a good way to get started. I'm posting this to get some motivation and stories from any members who have tried this out or currently do it. Any tips, advice, insight, or experience that you have to share would be helpful to me and anyone else who finds their way to this post!
