First, you need to surround yourself with others who are already successfully doing what you want to do.

How can I be just as successful at house hacking in a townhouse?

Many people can house hack and are successful. 

I wish you great success

@Sarah Larbi's is a successful local investor who has a great track record and runs a successful meetup.

I love teaching as well, so hopefully as my experience gets better I can help someone else be successful. 

I was so fired up that I called my husband on my drive home (1 hour) and explained Matthew's success verbatim (atleast it felt like it) and then I explained that we have to sell our house because as I exclaimed, "do you realize what type of money we are sitting on?" 

Any advice for success with the nightly rentals?

I know that part of being successful in anything is networking and building relationships with like-minded people.

However we’re human and you seem like a compassionate one.I’ve found success by having an honest conversation with the tenants, and laying out a clear timeline.
