House Hacking via Airbnb. AirBnB managers in Lubbock?

[Rony Rockford]

I'm a first time home buyer in Lubbock Texas and planning to get into real estate by house hacking a SFH. I'm wondering if it's viable to host 2 guest bedrooms on vrbo/ABnB and live in the master bedroom? I work full time out of office so I would be looking for a local full-service Airbnb property manager to take care of everything.

Appreciate any suggestions, leads, tips and thoughts. Is this even viable? What kind of occupancy, monthly income and guests can I expect? Or is it better to go with mid term / long term rentals?

I've looked at out of state PMs like Awning and evolve but I guess it would be better to have someone local manage the BnB. Any leads on a local Airbnb PMs in Lubbock would be great. Thank you.
