In the eyes of the law, it's no different than a cane or a wheelchair.Keep in mind, just because the ESA is not considered a pet doesn't mean it gets to run rampant, disturb the neighbors, crap all over the parking lot, or tear up the house.

This gives you a foundation for making a fair offer.Secure Financing: Be prepared to show you’re a serious buyer with funding lined up, whether through cash, traditional financing, or a creative option like seller financing.Have a Strategy for Repairs or Development: If the property is distressed, outline how you’ll handle improvements to bring it back to productive use.

@Madison SloanTo start house hacking, focus on saving for your down payment, researching target markets like Salt Lake City or North Idaho, and building a strong team of professionals, including an agent and lender.

Im currently house hacking a triplex property I bought not too long ago with one inherited tenant who was there when I bought the property. 

I also work with atheletes to find housing since I am a retired athlete myself. 

The house was purchased in October and is still in rehab.

@Noah Laker Will you be running the house or leasing it to a company.

The main house will be house hacked for the first year and will turn into a co-living.   

Quote from @Edward James smith: Hello, I currently own a single family house with an ADU, and a duplex.

Alexandria, VA is a great spot for house hacking!
