@Michael

I am looking at doing a multi-family house hack next. So that’s what I would do with my extra money

@William S.

Regarding the Duplex House Hack:

- Whats something you wish you would have known before diving into this?

- Did you buy turnkey or a place that needed some work?

- How long did you live there?

This is going to be my next Real Estate move

I am a newbie investor and I am looking for recommendations for electronic payment methods to implement for my tenants to pay rent. I currently just collect checks from my tenants I house hack with, but I am in the process acquiring my first property that I will not be living in. So I wanted to move to collecting rent electronically. With such few tenants still, does it make sense to just use Paypal or Venmo? or are the better options out there? Thanks in advance!

@Kyle Holmes

Some things I like to look for in a House Hack are:

1) Safe area, since I will be living there

2) Cash flows when I move out

3) Separate Utilities, nice to have each side pay their own
