Houses are staying longer on the market in many places. 

Try looking into cities in with stable economies, strong renter populations, and where housing is below the US median value.

Get the house hack under contract and closed first. 

A contractor left a back door open one day and someone walked into the house and stole $2000 worth of tools.

.: Hi,Is there a way to download specific addresses for houses in a certain area online?

Perhaps you have coverage for the replacement value BUT the insurance company when calculating the replacement property uses modern building materials like drywall but your original house had plaster which is much more expensive.

Same with houses and the MLS.

I had a client use one for their house hack in salt lake city area and it worked out well!

I'm speaking of co-living in a typical A or B level neighborhood house, so instead of a 20-25% down payment, we are speaking of a 1-5% down payment. 

If you walked into a bank, your pre-approval would likely never qualify for a house hack duplex.Did they count 75% of the expected rent towards your DTI?
