I was doing some searching of my own to dig more into this and saw that they listed 4 units could be up to $1,472,500, but that there was no limit for single family homes with the new blue water navy act.

It really only needed some minor repairs to the french doors (handle hardware), some paint, repair and clean off the decks and it was good to go.   

I'm now allowing outdoor pets again, though on my first rental, an outdoor dog scratched the paint off of both sets of steel French doors and I charged the tenant for replacement.

(I'm renting out the 2nd bedroom, so I can pull in at least a little income while house hacking) I realized I'm alot more handy than I give myself credit for (I'm a Jet Engine Mechanic in the Navy), no wife/kids, so doing most of the work myself.I would love to get in contact with people that use house hacking as a primary way of creating rental properties for themselves!

A little about me, I’m currently active duty in the Navy (16 years) and am stationed in San Diego.

I'm a veteran of the US Navy.

I am currently in the navy and I know I can get the VA home loan if I live in the building.

We primarily invest and manage around SECT (Groton, New London, Mystic), we have a few large employers as well as the Navy here so we don't see a decrease in demand for some time. 

I added 194 sf to the property with an additional bathroom added. i expanded the master bedroom and added a master walk in closet. i added a 200 sf deck and put in french doors from the dinning rm to open up the space to the back yard.
