Looking to buy first home/house hack

[Emmanuel Olojakpoke]

Hello everyone! 
I’m in a situation where i live for free right now and i was waiting until next year to buy a home. But now I have to move out pretty soon and i don’t want to get an apartment , i would love to buy a house and do a house hack.

I live in the Cincinnati area, is there anyone in the area willing to help me out. I’ve read a lot of the books and watched alot of podcast episodes, i think now is the time to just jump all in and get started with a house hack.

I don't often see people have much luck with this approach. Put yourself in the shoes of the ideal person you want to help you. What would make them want to reach out to you to help you?

If I were you I'd start going to local meetups to meet people and build these relationships organically. If you want something, give something. See what the investors you want to help you need and start providing it. Maybe you can mow their properties lawns, or clean some gutters. Maybe you can help draft leases, or help them find off market deals.

The point I'm trying to make is don't ask for something for nothing. Provide value and have a mentality of wanting to hep others and people will naturally flock to you and want to help you succeed.
