@Jarret Jarvis I can't imagine many house hackers hire a PM.

Paying for a Section 8 investment course is the equivalent of an aspiring cook paying for a course titled: How To Boil Water

But if you do have a house that sits in expansive soils and are susceptible to shrinking and expanding they can put pressure on the basement walls (exacerbated by frost/thaw cycles) and cause them to crack horizontally.

To set the stage, I'm owner of a short-term rental property in the Poconos in PA and we use a property management company for bookings, maintenance/cleaning, guest management, etc.This past weekend we had a guest booking but when the guests arrived Friday evening the house had no running water, though it had been running fine earlier in the day when the Property manager (PM) was at the house to give a final check and leave the welcome packet.

It’s simply a place to start your own research or to give to your attorney if you need to find out if it applies…https://amihousebuyers.com/selling/disclosure/#:~:text=Key%2....Do you have to disclose water damage when selling a house?

This is a great case of how anyone can house hack.

Making over a $140,000 isn't much of a horror story even if it's a "scary house." 

Are you going to live there also, or do you want to operate a shared housing model in a single-family home with tenants?

I have never heard of someone house hacking with an STR, that is super creative...

I started house hacking in the San Diego area.
