House hacking with property manager
Do you guys recommend getting a property manager if you’re starting a house hack? I have 2 other bedrooms in my house that I want to rent out for extra income.

I think it's unnecessary. You live in the house, so why not manage it?
One benefit of managing your househack is that you can regulate who lives with you. If you are an orthodox Jew and want only orthodox Jew roommates, that's legal. If you want to have only male roommates, that's allowed. If you don't want children, you can reject them. Because you live in the house, you have the freedom to choose who shares the space with you. Once you involve a property manager, that option may go away.
