The house is 1500 sq ft and has a rebuilding cost of $300,000. 

We usually get our tenant from our first open house (but we write our leases such as none expire Oct thru February). 

Are 3D printed homes the future of housing, or just a passing fad?

At current interest rates, the new mortgage would be more than our current home to move into this smaller house.

I am looking to buy a house hack in Wichita Kansas, but the inventory is so LOW, and nothing seems to make sense.

Hi Ronald, depending on what part of shelbyville the house is located. overall I would stick around with renting it for SFR,  Rental market is good.

Can we stop renting our house hacked property after one year if we want it wholly for personal use?

Where there is sustained and significant population growth, the current housing supply will not meet demand so prices rise until the number of sellers roughly matches the number of buyers.

There's an absentee-owner house I've been watching in my neighborhood that recently went into pre-foreclosure.
