The three best strategies for house hacking right now in 2021 in Denver:1) Rent By Room - buy a large house (5+ bedrooms/3+ Bathrooms) and live in the master room and rent out all the other bedrooms.

I have a conventional 30 year loan on the old house(lived there for 2+ years) and private loan on the new one for now.

I got my bill for my house in Lake Oswego from Safeco which I had had for years and it was always around 2k to 2.3 k  i get the bill its 6k.. i call my agent and told him no way.. and he hunted around and found me something maybe 500 cheaper .. so I thought I have a aaa card I know they sell insurance and are reputable.. walk in there 1800 bucks done and I have full  basement ( which is rare on a new home in Oregon) and they gave me a much higher insurance amount if my sump pump fails.. bottom line shop.u

My husband and I did get a quote and tried to use it to renegotiate the price of the house.

Currently interested in house-hacking a duplex in Springfield.

I'm just curious...I'm here in CA, and with the cost of housing, I'm always wondering if my home is too large and if I should be finding other ways to invest my money, such as buying rental property (2 town homes instead of a house for example) and moving into a house later. 

For example in Texas a finder is limited to a maximum fee of 10% of the net amount received by the beneficiary, thereby eliminating from profitability a significant percentage of deals.This is the same over hyped, over promoted, over promised, under performing opportunity as note broker, house wholesaler, etc.

You should be transparent will sellers because doing otherwise could be illegal (if you have insane person sign a contract to sell a house for $1, or mislead and lie to seller about their property value in order get a contract you could be liable for fraud.
