@Kyra Waters welcome Kyra, 26 from buffalo and bought my first house hack last summer.

The current owner does and I am seeing the expenses for utilites go from $300/mo in the summer up to $800/mo. in the winter with Montana winters getting pretty brutal some years.

I did the same thing last summer in southeastern Columbus and it's been working out great. 

Hey @April Clark, I did a bit of a run down on properties available for sale, what's on VRBO and their nightly rates and calendars.Calendars are pretty low occupancy for the upcoming summer.

I have often come by and see them having barbeques with my guests during the summer. 

I am planning on refinancing my house once some comps hit the market this spring/summer (I live in a lake town).

@Doran Summers Thanks for inquiring, basically I feel like I been treated as a newbie, where I been ask how much I am willing to pay for closing cost, and several times my lender just send me a loan estimates just to sign without discussing interest rate, points charged, not giving me any options other than just signed the one.

If I were to wait until it got a bit closer to a buyers market, there is a good chance I end up paying the same or more if I were to buy later this summer?

Employment is likely to speed up through the spring and early summer if the vaccines do their job and keep the coronavirus pandemic at bay.

The timing is late summer(ish).
