Hey Edgar Sanabia,
Sounds like a great idea for adding additional income! I would make sure that the current zoning allows for that. Also, parking may be an issue for your tenants and/or STR guests.

Good question, there are typically two agents for each transaction. The sellers agent and the buyers agent. The sellers agent is the agent who lists the property for sale, this is the name that you see on Zillow, Trulia, etc. The buyers agent represents the buyer and submits offers to the sellers agent.

Hey Terry Landon,
I think this is a deal by deal analysis rather than a city by city one. Saying that, and assuming I understand your question correctly, I think it would be cities with the highest average sales price.

Hey Zach Shull,
Yes you should let them know that you are no longer living there and that you have a tenant in place. They will be able to update your policy accordingly. Should be a simple process.

Yes. I believe most people should look into house hacking when getting started. Even if its the only property you ever buy, it will still be one of the best decisions you've ever made.

Hey Stephen Homes,
You wont be able to find low fees on short term loans, these loans typically have higher fees. Your best bet for low fees would be private money, borrowing from a family member or friend.
