If you have good credit and sufficient income, that might work.

@Daniel K Houck I have 2 kids and a wife and they don’t want to house hack either so I can relate to your post.The BP Money series interviews a bunch of people where Financial Independence is achieved through frugality, REI, and investing.The story is the same there-start young, make sacrifices before kids, rent out your bedroom in your apartment and sleep on a sofa and grow your own food and use K-cups twice and count each piece of toilet paper etc…and by your mid 30s you are free!

I would rather sleep without worry.No there is no two week rule.

While I have sufficient capital to undertake 1 or 2 flips at a time, the high cost of properties in the DMV area makes scaling challenging without resorting to interest-based financing.Is this feasible, or is it a stretch?

Wait for mid term, mostly an HELOC From your town home will be sufficient for your next down payment or a few homes in GA.

Or maybe have a squatter coming in on a down week and taking over.Or maybe you like dealing with folks sleeping in your back yard or having a derelict RV on the street in front of your house.I am being a bit hyperbolic of course, but our area isn't owner friendly at all and it is getting worse.

But if you rent a F150 pickup truck from Hertz for a month because you need to pick up lumber, roofing materials, appliances, etc during work days from Home Depot, and you drive the truck home to sleep at night, my understanding is you cant expense "mileage" on a rental, so how do you expense the rental truck?

So figure this, I made $200K in appreciation just sleeping in my apartment, but have to drive myself nuts to Philly, or have to deal with a PM.

I am trying to fill a gap between today and when my obsession can start :)Oh, and did I mention I'm a veteran with PTSD (resulting in hyper brain activity) that has leds to sleep disorders, and I already had OCD to top it off?

In addition, the owner of the home must not own more than three single-family homes.3) They are unable to provide sufficient documentation, such as the emotional support animal letter, that verifies the ESA is necessary for their health and well-being.4) The tenant provides fraudulent documentation attesting to their need for an emotional support animal (usually a fake emotional support animal letter).5) The landlord can demonstrate that making accommodations for an ESA would impose undue financial burden or logistical burden. 6) The animal is destructive to the property or displays threatening behaviors that could put other tenants or yourself at risk.7) The size or nature of the animal makes it impossible to house safely or humanely.
