House hacking is what we Gen Xers (and everyone before us) called "room mates". 

Having property management and renovation experience will put you in a great position to find an excellent house hack and to screen/manage roommates. 

And we are pursuing a roommate strategy for the rent.

My Fiance and I own a single family home and rent two upstairs bedrooms out to two roommate/tenants on month-to-month leases. 

My bathroom still not done been 3 weeks.. on a good note my duplex is rented and I have a roommate that pat $500.

Wages in Manch are low, you end up with a lot of roommate situations.

When the tenant did finally call to ask about the locks being changed, she explained that her roommate and she had parted on bad terms.This is not over - the owner faces potential issues due to the do-it-yourself eviction (not legal in IL).

From what I've seen and I'm sure some realtors can chime in - but I'd spitball anything $200k and lower is prime as there just isn't much to choose from (if you are thinking about resale and how fast you can move later on as most Dr's it seems like complete their residency in town ... if that's what you're doing....then move shortly thereafter)Anyways if that's the high end of your budget you have the pick of wherever you want to live.I did the whole roommate situation - but will tell you this - as someone pointed out - Wichita is fairly affordable so IMO having done the roommate situation there  here's my perception.You either need to offer a KICKAxx space (which a $500k house would do) to get a roommate or it needs to be pretty affordable - or a combo of both.   

I have a move in move out form to handle roommates coming and going in situations that warrant it.

Actually, adding a roommate to the lease changes the lease - and the terms.
