House Hacking Single Family Homes
Happy Monday everyone!
Many examples of creative strategies exist on these forms and I thought it would be interesting to hear about what creative "house Hacking" strategies you have used to gain access to your first few deals using single family homes.
As with any strategy I believe it is important to have multiple exit plans before you go in to protect your money and sanity.
With that being said, what are some experiences you have created by using a single family home as your stepping stone in the investing world?
Our lease is up in November and we are saving aggressively to aquire our first investment property and house Hacking has always been an interesting concept to us.
