So, while in some ways its great in others its less than ideal.

From that experience, I got the idea of just building a multifamily (ideally a quadruplex) from the ground up as my next home to house hack in.I've done some preliminary research and had some questions if any experts care to chime in:+ There aren't many multifamily zoned lots in metro Atlanta.

.: @Gash Nookala - if your property is not in the Hampton Cove area of Owens Cross Roads, you honestly are not in an ideal location for a rental. 

I think it's ideal for a 1031.

People are busy with the holidays, and very few are focused on moving. 22 days isn't ideal, but it's not bad for this time of year.

Just be sure to check local regulations for Airbnbs.For long-term rentals, growing cities with strong job markets and affordable housing are ideal.

I deal with this without charging the tenant if its not excessive. 

Ideally, you are looking for places where everyone is expected to network like local reia meetings.4.

Ideally, I would prefer to capture their existing bookings after closing, by directing existing bookings to my new listing, but there are some dependencies/uncertainties I'm working through and would appreciate any advice or shared experiences here. 

Ideally want to break even or cash flow with the 3 tenants.
