@Joseph Beilke we are getting married in Jaco, Costa Rica in a month and thought the same.

Once you are married, you are going to want your alone time.

You talk about not having the time to deal with these things, moving out of state, getting married, etc.

I have the great luck of being married to a Japanese citizen and both spouse and I have incomes in Tokyo over $20M.

This can lower your tax bracket potentially and you earn interest on the income you would have normally paid Uncle Sam.10) At the close of escrow, move funds outside of the taxable estate to avoid the 40% estate tax on amounts over $11M single or $22M married couple.

Husband and I have 3 rental properties between us that were we lived in separately at different points before getting married.

If your goal is cash flow, then your best bet may be to live in it for 2 years, and then take that tax free gain (250k single person, 500k married) and buy elsewhere. 

There are many more and many more personal goals such as getting married and starting a family, adopting my first GSP dog, traveling to Wyoming and Montana and spending more time in nature, just to share a few.

Hey, if you get married you'll be able to shield an extra $250k in capital gains!!

I was in a similar position a few years ago, but fortunately got married and our combined incomes helped us qualify for a larger house hack.We're on our second one in NOVA, Alexandria to be exact, and instead of rent by the room, we are renting out our walkout basement on Airbnb to monthly guests.That said, we have a number of friends doing well with rent by the room across NOVA, though they're purchasing homes with 5+ rooms or finding homes that can be renovated to include that setup.I'd recommend attending meetups such as the one I cohost, NOVA REI or Cashflow Breakfast Club or any of the others to meet those who are house hacking.
