Los Angeles market for house hacking.Is it generally better to buy a duplex for house hacking in a better area, for example, Silver Lake, but pay a bigger down payment(20%-25%) for a move in ready home or buy a fixer upper duplex in West Adams and pay minimum downpayment 3.5-5% and spend the rest on renovation to gain forced appreciation.

Quote from @Adam M.: 1.

@Neisa Adams Usually you look at the property (I bring my contractor on the initial showing because if he says no to a property then the deal is dead in the water to me) then you decide if you’re making an offer, then after your offer has been accepted you get an inspection done and once the inspection report comes in you get your estimates.

@Allison Adams just wanted to add that any time you’re repair/replacing something like this think about “hardening” your unit … whatever you choose to do, make sure solution leads to less hassle in the future.
