I'm looking to househack a small multifamily property but I'm split two ways. I have a job opportunity with my company in Florida which will have me in out of Florida for over a year, (would I still be able to make it my primary residence?) or a few options of 4 families in Brooklyn NY which cashflow but are a steeper upfront investment. Which market should I use this one time government aid in?
I'm struggling to understand the connection between government aid and house hacking. However, if you have the capital to invest in Brooklyn; it will be likely a better return long term than most anywhere else. If you also have the ability to establish residency in Florida, that too is something you should try to get.
