House Hacking My First Investment Property!

Hey Everyone! 

I'm super excited that 2023 is going to be the year I buy my first investment property. I just relocated to Pensacola, Florida and I'm on the hunt for a deal. I'm planning to use my FHA loan to buy a small multi-family property (2-4 units), or a single-family with the potential to rent out a bedroom or ADU.

As a first-time homebuyer & house hacker - I need all the tips! 

What do you wish someone told you when you were buying your first investment or house hacking for the first time?

@Sophie Grizzle 

House Hacking is amazing. Here are some resources I found really helpful on my journey.

1. For podcasts I really like the Huse Hacking episodes on Bigger Pockets Podcast and other channels. Here is a playlist with the best House Hacking Podcasts I’ve found: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4A6uLsPfdWEMmJhG4TSjyb?si=743bb403548f47fb

2. Great beginners guide: https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/Ultimate_Beginners_Guide_BiggerPockets.pdf

3. The Book on House Hacking Strategies by Craig Curelop is also a fantastic book
