Decent Areas for House Hacking a Duplex in the South

[Fabio Cattolico]

Hi everybody,

I'm new to real estate investing and I would love to house hack a duplex somewhere south if possible. My fiancée and I are from San Antontio and currently live in NYC. Im trying to get an idea of any kind of market in a slightly warmer region of the country that I should look into for househacking a duplex. Very open to various states including Texas, Florida, Georgia, Arizona, The Carolinas, Tennesee etc. I want to look into cities where I can find duplexes in decent areas for 400k max. I'd love to hear any kinds of recommendations and if you know amazing areas anywhere else that is not the south, I'd be happy to look into them as well. Thanks a lot!
