Seattle House Hacking

Fernando Puga
Posted

Hello, 

I am a new RE investor trying to look for my first house hack. Currently, I am interested in Covington (around Timberlane area) and Auburn (close to Thomas Jefferson Highschool). For all the Seattle investors out there, what do you think would be a more preferable neighborhood to invest in for cash flow? 

Thanks,

Thanks for the shoutout @Chace Fraser! @Fernando Puga there's a lot of factors that go into calculating cashflow, but in general Auburn's price-to-rent ratios are slightly better than Covington's. There's definitely great investments to be found in both cities though.

I can shoot you a rental report with a more detailed breakdown, sending you a DM now :).
