We just bought our first rental property and are currently remodeling it to house hack in for a couple years while we plan for the next rental purchase.

Unless you are using your primary as buying a fixer upper and remodeling to sell two years later to get more cash to buy more rentals, i have done especially when i had no money that how i got started. 

The creativity I think you could bring to this is simply avoiding expensive interior remodeling - just find a cheap space, fill it up with thrift-shop desks, get the very best internet (don't skimp on that :), and rent desks cheap!

Reassessments even happen after interior remodels btw.)

One landlord let me out of the lease after I complained that the heat wasn’t working (this house had so many problems including him promising us a kitchen remodel when we moved in and then he got mad when I told him the contractor left the cabinets outside overnight - with dogs in the adjoining unit who liked to pee on everything, anyway this was winter in Wisconsin and he flat out ignored me for several days when I told him the heat wasn’t working).

The house was completely remodeled before the tenant moved in and the entire house was painted. 

That way if they pay it you're good to go without the big cost of rehab, and if they move you are ready to remodel it because you have paying tenant in the other side in your old unit.
