Hello all,I just closed on my primary residence with an FHA loan so I am not able to house hack since I am obligated to live in the residence for a year.

I just don't want to run into any problems with the lender when I am about to close on the house.

I fear the lawyers will become wealthy over this litigation...Overall, it's an interesting "solution" to the problem of foreign investment in real estate and the lack of adequate housing for the population. 

Educate yourself on how to house hack.

Id appreciate any help, as ex. if i take out say 100k home equity loan and use 50k each as down payments/cloing costs my understanding is i cant deduct the interest?However, if i would take 100k home equity on a renta...

State Farm just told me I have too many houses and have to move on. 

It's in great school districts, so I just listed those in the ad in a neutral, factual manner, which I believe won't violate fair housing laws as long as I avoid implying a preference. 

I made tons of mistakes on my second house hack and I still came out ahead.
