House hacking in Atlanta
Hello!
Im interested in a duplex/triplex in the Atlanta area, but i have some questions if you all can help!
I just finished grad school, and I moved to Atlanta. Im currently renting an apartment, and my lease ends September 2020. I have about 10K in my savings, and plan to save more.
When should I start looking to make offers? I plan to start as soon as possible.
Is 10K enough to start? If not, how much more should I save?
With FHA, will I have to be at my current job 2 years, even if i just finished grad school, to qualify for FHA?
Thank you BP Members!

@Joel German Congrats! I strongly suggest reading "The House Hacking Strategy" by @Craig Curelop for all of your answers man! I'm in the same boat; I plan on house hacking when my lease is up summer of 2020. I've been reading a lot of FHA & House hacking forums getting educated but the book cleared up everything & it's good to go back and use as a resource!
