A number of my clients have chosen to go the "house hack" route to dramatically their living expenses and supercharge their savings.

I've done all my DD and have chosen San Antonio...preferably Live Oak, because it's access to the I35 corridor, proximity to San Antonio and Austin and it's recent growth with that Ikea shopping center, etc.

I haven’t chosen to use leverage later so I could get a grasp on how re works without a mortgage or note.

So, why would I gamble on making more with that money especially when getting out of debt is more important to me?

We are in a situation where last week my chosen lender was available, and this week he is not.

@Greg Scott,Going after appreciation is not investing - it's speculating (gambling).

It is a gamble!

By then I had chosen to work with someone else.
