I am a current restaurant owner who is looking to become eventually full time real estate investor.

If you have a 4 bedroom, 2 bath SFR, and suddenly you can rent to 8 people, not only are you asking for 8 cars around 1 property, but you'll have 4 people using 1 bathroom,  you'll have 8 people sharing 1 kitchen, 8 people sharing 1 laundry room, 8 people sharing 1 or two living rooms.

I work with first timers that are house hacking. 

So I wouldn't get top rent and it would cost to renovate the kitchen, bathrooms and floors.

We have been fortunate to have a few tenants re-up their 1-year leases multiple times so have only have the dreaded 3-4 month vacancy twice the whole time renting it but it's always a possibility.
