I know people who have sheet rocked the walls but there are some considerations you should follow in doing so. 

Thanks for the consideration.

I am not a lender, but I have never seen a loan specifically for "house hacking" but who knows maybe I am wrong :)If you plan to purchase something I would do it soon because rates are expected to rise.

With home prices on the rise in a large number of markets, including Austin real estate, stats are showing that just about every Tom, Dick, and Harry have been taking a stab at making some extra money by flipping homes.According to the Wall Street Journal, the first nine months of 2016 had the highest number of investors flipping a home since 2007.

It will take a considerable amount of time and money to get this deal done, but the return will likely be large for any investor willing to take the risk.

Other than the benefit that this usually costs less, it generally allows insurers that would otherwise require you to keep all of the policies under one roof to exclude the rentals from consideration (it won’t cover them, but that’s why you have the general liability policy).

After 30 years of Renting I have no Faith in any new Tenant to follow through with any of the considerations on the Contract.

Charles Parrish okay ill take it into consideration.

In an environment of rising rates, time is your most crucial factor.2.

Turn it to the left and the interest rate goes down while the fees rise.
