House Hacking in Bay Area

[Abe Rouz]

Hi 

Im starting to consider house hacking in the Bay Area. Ideally i like to avoid San Francisco, Oakland and Berkeley given the changes in landlord laws. I have been primarily looking at househacking duplex and fourplex around the east bay. Any perspective, advice to get started would do wonders. I am currently a physician assistant and looking to stay local to my job sites. Thank you!
