Where is the best place to house hack in Denver?

[Ben Einspahr]

A very common question I receive is, “Ben, whats the best places to house hack?” I can not answer that simply because... well it depends! Depends on your goals (short and long term), privacy needed, ability to work remote, liquid cash available, etc. What I may consider a great house hack (married with a family) could be completely different from someone just graduating college!

What I can do is provide concrete data where some recent house hacks are and are NOT being purchased. Then let you come to your own conclusion. 

Attached is a map of some of the recent transaction closed. In addition to House Hacks, it breaks out Nomads, and Traditional Landlord Rentals.

Some things I notice.

• Majority are West of I-25
• Not to many centrally focused in the Denver Metro?
• Top Cities
  • Arvada
  • Wheat Ridge
  • Lakewood
  • Westminster
  • Thornton/ Northglenn
  • Aurora
• Not so popular cities
  • Parker
  • Littleton
  • Englewood

Hope you find value in this data! Happy to dive deeper into the data if anyone is interested. Let me know!
