Both work menial jobs, gas station and waitress, but together their income estimates are good enough.

My college-aged children lived there in the summer when they worked as waiters and waitresses at the local restaurants.

Talk to the waitress at a lunch counter.

Talk to the owner, talk to the neighbors out working on their yards, talk to the waitress at the local diner. 

House hacking may allow you to pay little or nothing for your personal living giving you an easy source for your savings.The other day, I listened to a BP podcast with a lady from Detroit who was a waitress and single mom.

I have no idea how many waitresses I have sold properties to with their decent job husbands, parents and grandparents!

(Thank you oversharers) a quick click over to moms fb page revealed that she worked as a waitress at the crackerbarrel next door.

As I said above, it's about people, not listings on the MLS, those are public, everyone knows that's there.My mom was a very out going person, she and dad (and I) would go someplace and a waitress would wait on us and she'd say " you know anyone who wants to buy a house?"

So I'm in New Hampshire on vacation this weekend ( at our vacation rental) and got chatting with a very nice waitress who it turns out also invests in real estate.

Don't go for the hottie waitress in a place like that, get one older with a personality!
