Hello everyone, I posted last year about house hacking in Pittsburgh but did not get serious until this year. What do people think about Brentwood, PA? I have found a couple units that may work but am wondering if I am missing something. The market for duplexes seems low south of the city, but in Brentwood is appears plentiful. Is it the taxes? The area seems nice enough. I also don't see the area appreciating too much but you never know. Thanks. 

@Jeremy Taggart While living there. I see you are pretty active on here and are in the Pittsburgh area? Would you want to meet up for coffee sometime? I don't own anything yet but as my post indicated I am looking. Maybe you can help.

I am looking to house hack in the Pittsburgh area. (Castle Shannon, Dormont, Mt. Lebanon etc.) Is it OK to be cash flow negative if I am living in one half of a duplex or something similar. Obviously that’s not the goal but I’d still be building equity. Thanks.
