Like James said if social security is their only source of income it wouldn't be the best idea. Instead, try getting a partner. You can find the deals and they can supply the money. Then you can split it however you come to agreement. Best of luck!

Good luck and have FUN!

With you and your husbands experience in plumbing I would find a trusted plumber to see what's wrong with the sink and go from there. I wouldn't want to fix it myself, do it wrong and then have even more of an issue. 

I've found a single family house that would be perfect to house hack if I rented by the room. Vacancy in my area is about 8%. Since I am renting by the room should I have the vacancy rate be around 12%-15%? 

Thank you so much @Caroline Gerardo! I've been at my job since September 2019 and am ready to buy my first property. Winter months have definitely come early this year. I can't complain about or inventory. We have a little over 5 new cars and roughly 80 used cars. Definitely not what were used to but as a dealership we are still up year over year for total units which is great. 

I work as a car salesman and I'm trying to create a budget but am having a hard time because my income can fluctuate month to month. Can anyone help with creating a budget for a variable income?

When house hacking, do you charge the tenants for the beds and bath they use or do you charge them the full 4 bed, 2 bath rent?

Example:

• Single-family
• 4 bed
• 2 bath

Median rent for 4 bed, 2 bath is $1,850

Median rent for 3 bed, 1 bath is $1,250

@Caleb Barney great to know! Thanks again. 

@Caleb Barney & @Alex Henry thank you both
