Hello all,My wife and I are looking to purchase a house-hack in the southern New Hampshire area.

I would try to not touch your current home equity and save up a down payment to house hack again. 

Have you considered a housing hack by purchasing a duplex (assuming you have the money down)? 

This is why for 90% plus of aspiring investors I recommend starting with house hacking.

Are you willing and able to house hack? 

Thank you.You are probably asking how to hack the system, but all the advice to hack a top ranking won't work over time unless you are a very strong operator already.

You also have higher expenses with STR and MTR, you have all the utilities, furnishings, and consumables to account for as well.Combining strategies with house hacking makes it easier to get to cash flow.

There is one I attend on occasion in the Valley.One option is house hacking here in LA.

Planning to purchase in Phx,Az and surrounding areas, my equifax score is 700, experian 645,no debt whatsoever, have 1099 for 2022 and 2023 (required 2yrs), on my 1099s it says i make 135k per year, do not have tax returns (yea, yea), im planning to first start with my bank wells fargo.This would be my first home and at 1st plan to live in it, possible house hack, going for a -$300k loan. should i go traditional, fha , i plan to be on a fixed rate so I dont get surprises later on.In my situation, what down payment amount do you think will be needed .
