You're likely better off attending your local REI meet-up to see if you can find an investor who has house-hacked or is currently house-hacking their primary home.

Doesn’t mean you can’t find a good deal, but from our quick search while we were there in May 2022, none of the places came close to meeting our criteria

I am thankful for all of the advice I've received on this platform and grateful for this community.

Section 8 guarantees part of the rent, which is great for income stability, but the building will have regular inspections to meet Housing Quality Standards (HQS).

To avoid going through the same poor experience, keep reading.Even if someone gives you a referral here, do NOT make the mistake of assuming that the PMC will meet your expectations, just because they met the expectations of the referral source.In our experience, the #1 mistake owners make when selecting a Property Management Company (PMC) is ASSUMING instead of CONFIRMING.It's often a case of not doing enough research, as they don't know what they don't know!

If you want a more accurate estimate for rent, use any platform and zoom into your local neighborhood and see what similar properties are advertised for rent.

And the best way to start networking is here on BP and attending your local REIA meetings IMO.

My cabins (1 to 5 bedrooms, all with views, and all except the 1 bedroom is further from town) are still performing well and most are on track to meet or exceed 2023 returns.The days of buying and everything running easy with people filling your dates and throwing cash at you are over.

Meeting critical dates is the key to nailing a successful closing.
