What specifically are you looking for in a "house hacking" loan? Most lenders have loan options available under 10% down for purchasing a primary residence - these are standard conventional and FHA programs. You can live in one room and rent out the other bedrooms to roommates in your house, but in most cases you won't be able to use that "boarder income" to qualify. That just means you need to qualify with your own personal income.
