They paired me up with a member service advisor for 60 days, who checks in on you once a week and helps find content for you and keeps you accountable.

This means you need to pad your rehab costs, make sure you have trusted service providers that do great work, and when you run comps be sure to bring them down a bit and see if the deal still makes sense. 

First all, thank you for your service and kudos for making that sacrifice to househack it's definitely paid off!  

When a rental is taken out of service for personal use the accumulated depreciation goes away over a short period of time. 

It may be more worthwhile to find someone who has reasonable fees for their service as my two cents.I hope this helps in some way! 

I would suggest a good PM to start if you don't have a solid background in hospitality or at least something in the service industry.Self-managing can save a ton of money if you know what you are doing. 

Welcome and thanks for your service!!

House hacking is a fantastic way to start, but preparation is key.

Who knows, but should prepare either way. 

Also, if it's Lennar, be prepared for problems, insulation issues and therefore paper thin walls.
