Keep an eye on it and decent places end up popping up.Anyways, you can find the matrix here http://www.freddiemac.com/singlefamily/factsheets/...And the property/income map here http://www.freddiemac.com/homepossible/eligibility...I’m a big proponent of continuing to invest in the Bay Area and of course in Oakland the house hack is a great way to go, so right on.

Now those amounts are a small ballpark figure based on just estimation by my own accord now granted I could be wrong but that's why I'm asking questions and talking to you guys.Rent is 1066.33 is after expenses.So 5 people in 5 rooms at $500 a pop would be beneficial to covering the loan or financing for this deal plus my own rent paid for. 

One way I’ve been finding info is googling the address and looking at anything that pops up.

Other than that there are a few small mom-&-pop places but I dont want to turn over my portfolio over to a new inexperienced company.

Adds pop up on the side based on our browser history and cookies lead us along and we’re pushed further into whatever we already believe.

That could include: differed maintenance, mom and pop manager, below market rents, high vacancy, etc.

@Tyler Austin I didn't end up purchasing an apartment, but I have been picking up quite a few duplexes and 4 plexes as they have popped up in my target area.  

But my experience had been on the first year, you have many unplanned for expenses that pop up, so forget the cash flow, just deductions against the W2.

Trenched slab for new plumbing runs, tile and wood flooring throughout, scraped/smoothed ceilings, paint, moulding, quartz counters, framed/built custom showers, marble backsplashes, artistic tilework, etc...

Several issues popped up along the way, but the biggest lesson learned - just turn over the work to the contractors!
