Possibility of house hacking while in college? Advice?

[Ethan Schultz]

Next school year, I'll be attending Virginia Wesleyan University in Virginia Beach, VA. Curious if there's any advice as to how to go about the process of finding a property and whether it'd be possible to make it work or if it would be better to just live on campus. Not sure yet if I'm going to do it right away or wait for my sophomore year so that I'm able to build up more capital.
