The only way to answer that in general (whether house hacking in today's market is still a good option) or for a particular property, is to learn how to run the numbers and analyze a specific property to see whether it will be able to stand on its own as an investment when you move out someday.There are a lot of resources here on BP for doing that but I'd just say, make sure the assumptions you're putting into your spreadsheet or deal analyzer are realistic.Make sure the rents (especially for vacant units or pro-forma #s) are realistic by doing your own rent comps; make sure the mortgage rate is realistic by doing some research online and/or talking to some mortgage folks; make sure insurance #s are realistic by getting a couple of quotes for the # of units and zip code / area you're looking in; etc.I hope that helps, and good luck 😊 Thanks for the response and insight Anthony.

Its my understanding that the individuals are responsible for all the legalities, contracts ect to make it safe not to get ripped off. 

@Tim JacobThank you so much for your response.

I don't see anything slowing down anytime soon.

Both tenants are responsible for the damage caused.

that is typically 5-10 years+ of ownership.2. turnkey isn't entirely passive. you have to manage your property manager. they are responsible for doing whatever their management agreement says they're responsible for, and you are responsible for doing what it says you're responsible for. 

I had a response on a previous post this year about what the private lending restrictions will be here --> https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/22/topics/1174919-bough...Here's a re-post of that information though:------------------------------------I do have a DSCR lender who can assist with a limited recourse loan that will close in the name of a self-directed IRA.

I'm a little surprised at the response you are getting from some of our colleagues.  

Quote from @Kathy Kifer: @Michael Plaks - I just came across your response to this question.

Sometimes a slow and steady plan is better than being ready to jump on a deal.
