You won't find multifamily properties and the houses are generally smaller (which is great for lower maintenance cost).  

In recent years, we've often heard predictions about a housing market crash.

I closed on the house already.

Newly renovated home that host traveling professionals and now student housing.

If I buy a house hack that needs work that is projected to take 8-9 months and can't reside in the house until it is completed or can only be there between jobs can I still claim it as a primary residence?

Because it shouldn’t require Wi-Fi to let people into the house, so as long as the lock is letting people in, it’s mostly OK to deal withBottom line: in the freezing cold weather, is it simply that you can’t remotely connect for a time period?

My thought is I buy a multi-fam (off market preferably) and house hack for 2 years then move south.

Two contributing factors are high construction costs and regulations that make obtaining a construction permit difficult.California already has a large housing shortage.

It works the exact same way and it's the same exact lease with one difference - they specify that they are renting a bedroom and not the whole house. 

I have a house, I plan to sell this spring.
