You've probably heard of big Landlords losing property, but only because they were flagrantly violating Fair Housing, running a slum, or otherwise violating the law in an egregious manner.

I have to flip an entire house to make $12k, but an agent makes that in a couple hours without having to leave their home?!?!

For a first time investor, I definitely recommend house hacking for most people as homeowner loans are by far the best in terms of rate and LTV.
