just don't do a lease. as others have mentioned, this forces the buyer of the property to take over the lease (if its even allowed/ they qualify) and it certainly does make the property a little tougher to sell. i'm also doing a house hack, and here in CA, its made a world of difference for me. the bulk of our energy usage is in the summer when we want to run the a/c. my bill stays a constant $228/mo (i pocketed the tax credit and simply financed the panels after that grace period). instead of getting an $800 bill in the summer months, we run the a/c at a constant temperature 24/7 on auto, stay comfortable, and i typically get a little bit coming back at the end of the year. don't expect to pocket this "little bit back" by being conservative with your useage, it sort of is a use-it-or-lose-it situation... i think i got $54 back this year.

Then there is a sort of echo chamber where social media spreads this idea to more and more people and somehow it becomes realistic. 

We will have to increase density tremendously to have any sort of chance....but that is a very unpopular option. 

Hi everyone, I'm new here and am starting to build another income stream by generating motivated seller leads.

I also asked her to try to schedule the next inspection at the start of their workday to make it difficult for the inspector to claim to have been delayed by some other matter with any sort of credibility.

Going to be interesting to see what sort of impact the new Government's mass deportation policy has on rents and construction costs.  

Also, it sounds like you are in a great time of life to rent to roommates - I don't think you would regret figuring out a way to do some sort of house hack like that right now!  

My primary motivation is to ensure my dad doesn’t have to worry about financial stress after retirement.

Has anyone ever experienced this sort of situation?

Every once in a while I'll get motivated to search for grants to help me expand my portfolio and add to my cash flow but I've yet to find anything nor have I heard of any success stories.
