So... the definition of a house hack, I guess.

If you are looking to house hack in our local neck of the woods, I recommend reaching out to @Josh Green.

House hacking is an excellent strategy, especially with the potential to use an FHA loan to secure a property with a low down payment. 

My plan is to start house hacking.

I remember for my first house that was my goal and I house hacked that home for a few years. 

That's a lot of work that needs to be done for your first house hack.

@Madison SloanTo start house hacking, focus on saving for your down payment, researching target markets like Salt Lake City or North Idaho, and building a strong team of professionals, including an agent and lender.

Renting could allow you to focus on paying down debt and saving for a larger down payment, while buying now could help you start building equity or even generate passive income through house hacking.

Quote from @Edward James smith: Hello, I currently own a single family house with an ADU, and a duplex.

Connect with other investors, agents, and property managers to get a feel for the area and learn from their experiences.Are you thinking about house hacking or just straight-up rentals for now?
