It all depends on the work you/your clients want to do to create value and the overall game plan.

Contacting rentals is a smart approach too, its all really a numbers game

I am new to the game and using the FHA loan has just seemed to be the most common way to house hack (at least in terms of what the resources I have read have said).

If a landlord was responsible for each replacement it would add up quickly.

I just don't see you being able to do a whole lot to allow you to sell it quickly outside of lowering your price to something extremely compelling.
