Condo house hack?

Gio Franco
Posted

Hello everyone. I am a first time homebuyer closing escrow for a condo. My strategy is to house hack but not too sure on how  set my listings for the two extra bedrooms that I have. My main goal is to lower my monthly mortgage payment as best as I could.

My first house hack was a condo in Los Angeles. I ended up looking to my network to find a roommate.

Most use FB marketplace or FB groups. They post the unit and the leads come in. Keep in mind you will get a lot of no-shows so group the showings so you don't waste your time.

If you are in Long Beach, check out CSULB and see what forums they have to post rooms for rent.

Good luck!
