House hacking lets you live in one unit and rent out the others, which can help cover your mortgage and generate some extra income.

 - a study on rent cost compared to ownership cost shows that virtually every large city market it is initially cheaper to rent than own (I believe is was cheaper to went in 97 of the largest 100 markets)Miami and Florida have extra concerns:- insurance difficulties have resulted in large increase in insurance costs.  

No extra fees added for repairs, I'm allowed to contract my own people via the PM to do services(HVAC, lawn, water heater, etc.)

My opinion-- buy in the winter, underwrite with an extra long vacancy, get some seller concessions to defeat the cash flow if it's really that tight.

You’ll need to find a GC on board with the extra paperwork and a seller willing to accept a longer closing time.   

Now your fully renovated home is getting top dollar rents, you could probably refinance too since rates are poised to go lower (lowering your monthly obligation), you could open a HELOC before you move with the extra equity and use that to fund your next deal and now you have 2 homes! 

3) It's been 5+ years since we've seen a S8 tenant lose their voucher for property damages, not paying their portion of the rent or utilities, or other lease violations (letting others move in with them).It's our opinion that #2 & #3 above are caused by overworked caseworkers not having the time to process the extra required paperwork, so they take the path of least resistance.4) S8 needs someone at the federal level to put more of the program online and streamline the process!

Highlight the “family-friendly” perks, like extra beds, pet policies, and flexible terms.

However, you appear to be the type that doesnt really want to deal with some of the work or extra effort needed for those strategies.

Also, added smart-deadbolt locks to each bedroom for extra security in house-hack situation.What was the outcome?
