Wife doesn't want a second house hack

Josh Romo
Posted

Hey BP fam,

We have been house hacking for a year now everything has gone great it is my wife and I +3 daughters. As the market corrects i was saving up to grab another house to hack. 


Unfortunately my wife is not on the same page as me. She would lime a SFH just for us and the kids. Once we leave the current house it will cash flow $1800.


has anyone else been in the same situation? I fear that once i get the next property our investing into RE stops there until she finishes school in 4 more years 😭.


Our rents have so far covered mortage+HOA and solar bills and zero cash flow. One lender has said they will count 75% of rental income towards pur DTI is that average or are there better lenders out there?
