Showing houses 30 minutes at a time counts.

No, I do not think that there will be a housing crash or a massive drop, nationwide, in rents and prices.

They will likely want you to do all the traditional lead gen steps: cold call, open houses, door knock, etc.

What the city housing clerk is telling me is that there was a water leak from behind the sink pedestal on the second floor bathroom that has been running for a week. 

Also, it is bananas that a house like that is one is only 849k.

Hey Yianni, I would reconsider house hacking if you don’t have the time or bandwidth for a fixer upper.

How big is the house?

Only the house 5 down with the same sq ft is literally worth 100K more because the neighborhood actually changes in those 5 houses. 

I was playing with the idea of selling my condo, taking 300k of the equity to put a down payment towards a house listed at 660k.I'm assuming the reno will run $300/sqft and going in with the assumption that phase 1 will run 750k (figure the expansion of the house will have to wait) for the gut reno.I assume/hope (but definitely not banking on) that I will be able to refi in 2-3 years at a lower interest rate; if not for a lower rate.This will likely be a family home for the next 5-10 years at LEAST so investment value isn't quite at top of mind ATM.Questions:Even if it's not for lower interest rate, do you feel it's advisable to refi to remove the 203 loan in the future?

Hi all, I am considering the following strategy for a house hack in Old Town Alexandria.
