Hey everyone,Starting in my house hack first property and would like to know how you collect rent.

In my opinion, most people will tell you to do #1, but I would do #2 so you can keep your heads in school and learn and grow inside of a safer investment with HOA protecting you from some of the major expenses that could come in a house hack.

A great way to start is to house hack, low money down. 

I just got married two months ago, and am looking to buy a multi-unit property to house hack with my wife for our first home.

Last month I began searching for multifamily properties to house hack! 

For house hacking through an FHA loan, and as per some of the pro video workshops I viewed, you can restart a house hack after just one year (not two years)?

If your goal is to be a real estate investor, then I highly recommend you learn/study/live an actual RE investing strategy like buy and hold (which can be straight landlording, house hacking, BRRRR) and can be done in single family or multi family or you can flip or develop properties (but that too is a job and income stops when you stop flipping).Not to discourage you from your wholesaling desires, but think long and hard as to how and why you came to such a decision and know it is NOT RE investing.

House hacking really seemed to catch my eye so that is the route I’m leaning towards. 

Legally operating a business out of the property is one non-traditional style of house hacking to consider.
