Looking for Agent to help with House Hacking Home Search

[John Gallagher]

I am 21m, just finished up my Masters. I have a job in tech which allows me to work remotely. I reside right outside of New York City in the Suburbs, but recently visited a buddy that just moved to Denver. While there, the opportunity to house hack in the area seemed like a no brainer to me. Ive been learning all I can about REI over the past few months, from books, reddit, podcasts, this site, etc, and think I am ready to start looking for a first investment.

I love the idea of a house hack model. I do not need much privacy, so I would love to buy a home on the cheaper end of the spectrum with a few bedrooms, and maybe the ability to add a bedroom or two (houses with advertised "bonus room", etc), and then do a rent by the room model to other individuals. I am confident in my ability to cultivate a friendly environment within the house. Pending the right agent to help me look into some options, it seems like a pretty decent way to cashflow in the area. 

I visited earlier this month, and would like to come back once I have connected with an agent to look at some places. If you are someone you know has experience with customers like me, please do not hesitate to reach out. I can be in the area within a few days. 

If you have any tips or feedback on this idea, please let me know! Thanks, John.
