I'm currently rehabbing a condo I just purchased which I plan to house-hack.

Could you elaborate on how you personally would house hack if you were just getting started in Austin?

Look into low-downpayment options such as FHA house-hacking or a live-in flip and build from there.

Ideally, I would like to house hack.

What are your goals with your investing and does a house hack fit in with those goals or will you be better doing a simple owner occupied deal?

I actually thought of the donation box but could not find a way to attach them to wall Any easy hack for that?

What I think is a better move for young investors is house-hacking especially in college towns like yours.

I personally recommend house hacking with a duplex/multi-family property for your first go around.

I'm looking to do my first house hack this up coming year and I've been running a bunch of numbers on properties I've been seeing on zillow.

(Thinking I’ll have a huge advantage knowing the area inside & out, and having connections in the area for agents, a good prop manager & family contractor)2) Find a small multifamily in San Diego county to house hack that keeps my personal living expense under $500 but ideally tenant rent would cover the whole mortgage.
