House Hacking in Columbus, Ohio

[Joey Navarro]

Howdy BiggerPockets Fam, 

I feel like I'm in a good place  to finally pull the trigger and invest in my first multi-family property. I plan to house hack for my first  investment property and most likely do the same for my 2nd, 3rd, property as well! I'm intrigued by the concept of serial house hacking and feel like it's a solid strategy for accumulating investment properties. I live in Las Vegas, NV currently but see better opportunities for multi-housing investing in midwestern cities. I'm particularly drawn to Columbus, Ohio.

I would love to connect with an investor-friendly real estate agent in Ohio to help guide me through the journey. I'm also open to other markets as well. I work remote so really can live anywhere. Just want to go where I'll have the most success house hacking. Thanks for your time!

 Welcome to BP! I started house hacking in 2017. I would be happy to connect with you

I'm a fan of housing hacking too. I'm moving into a new house hack duplex in Gahanna this weekend - the strategy has helped me scale.

 This is a great strategy to quickly build up cash flow to supplement your income. I just helped an investor house hack here in Columbus. He's living in one side and the other side is doing great as a short term rental. Happy to connect!

 Great strategy! I'm house hacking a duplex in Hilliard currently. Excellent way to break into investing and scale your portfolio. I'm originally from San Francisco, CA so happy to help & be a resource for you. Good luck with your journey!

Hey Larry, 
I just got a house-hack in Columbus back in March and it's going great! Let me know if there is anyway I can help

 Hey Joey, that's a nice plan. I'd be happy to connect with you.

I love house hacking in Columbus because you can get into the higher priced areas and leverage your money very effectively. 

Returns on cash invested will be huge when you factor in the appreciation gains. You can double your money in one year if your property appreciates only 5%.

Columbus is a great place to get started house hacking in

Hi Joey, welcome to the BiggerPockets community! I started with house hacking myself when I moved from Portland OR to Columbus OH. I also helped some of my clients do the same. Happy to connect and answer any questions you may have.

Hi Joey, house hacking is what I did here in Columbus, Ohio when I started investing in 2020.

Here is an article with more information on what a house hack is - https://www.rocketmortgage.com/learn/house-hacking

Let me know how I can help!

@Joey Navarro Welcome to BiggerPockets! House hacking is definitely one of the very best ways to get started by putting less than 3-5% down then doing the same thing a year later. It's a great way to scale for your first few years.
