Purchase price: $465,000 Cash invested: $58,000 I bought this property as an FHA House Hack.

@Hansel Barretono ideacould you house hack it?

(House hack, primary, duplex, etc). 

I’m looking to start my real estate journey by house hacking a duplex and living there with my family while I renovate my primary residence.

This would significantly help my ability to afford the market from a house hack standpoint, but I want to understand what those tax advantages are renting out my basement as a business rental.

I'm planning to purchase my first SFH and do a house hack at the end of this year to get into the REI game! 

The Homebuyers Choice Loan from Navy Federal is very enticing from my research, and am also wondering if anyone has house hacked with this loan?

I've been working under a friends GC license and now working on getting my own.I am currently house hacking my invest property, the main house is rented out and I live in the unfinished back unit in the back that will eventually be a DADU.

If we do end up going that route, I was thinking it might be a good idea to rent out the basement and live in the main house (house hack).I did some Google searching to see what a basement might rent for in that area, however, I was having a hard time finding any listed anywhere.

@Haiden WelchI'd start with a house hack in the area you want to be.
