Key criteria for a successful SFH househack:Suitable zoning criteria, i.e. room rental laws (county by county)Within 1 mile of hospital, major company HQ, public university, and private university (to attract 20-somethings)At least half as many bathrooms as bedrooms (i.e. a 4 bed / 2.5 bath could work, but 4 / 1.5 could get sticky)Plenty of driveway space / street parking (1 per roommate)Plenty of kitchen space (since the kitchen is the most occupied room other than individual rooms)Basement or side entrance entry point (i.e. if you wanted to turn the basement into your living space, you could enter from a side entrance)Un-involved neighborhood community (cul-de-sacs can be the worst spots)Turn-key quality (i.e. you won't need to fix much of anything when you move in)This list is by no means exhaustive, but things to think about when you work with an agent on a SFH househack.

Lawrence Chen New investor - need tips - how to get started
7 October 2020 | 7 replies
@Lawrence ChenThe first step I’d do is write down your goals and expectations for an investment - what cash flow do you want, how much time do you want to spend, what condition of home, what about a market attracts you, etc.Then once you have a better idea that, I’d recommend to start reaching out to agents who are also investors so you can learn how the local markets are operating and how the on-market MLS compares to off-market deals.Overall, the Midwest is great.
