sHouse Hacking in Greater Los Angeles under 500k

[Pedro Cardoso]

Hi everyone! I recently moved to LA and I am looking for a property under 500k to house hack. I have already read past posts on this topic, but would be great to get refreshed views. What areas you recommend looking into that are not super sketchy?

For greater context, I work in downtown LA and I am prepared for a longer commute (ideally up to 1hr). Also I plan to do a 20% down payment (otherwise MI will kill my cash flow). I am aware that LA is difficult to cash flow but I would like to get as close as possible. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Best,

Pedro Cardoso
