Any Investors In South Florida?

Question

Just trying to find some local house hackers to see what’s working for you guys.

I’m a real eager investor here in SoFlo just looking to interact with people on the same wave length as I am.

Sean Howell · Answer

I just recently bought a house hack about a year ago that’s working out well for me. I would definitely say look in the Broward neighborhoods. You’ll find much better numbers than in Dade.

Hi Christopher. What are you doing on your end to find investment/ house hacking opportunities? They are everywhere. Some areas you just have to dig deeper and search harder, but there’s always something in every market. How long have you lived in the area? Do you have a roommate or do you know someone well enough to get a roommate? I’m only asking because here in Broward County you can find a condominium reasonably priced that you can get into for your first property. If you have a roommate you can live for very cheap so you can save money for a larger property. My first investment was about 26 years ago. I bought a duplex and super house hacked it. Not only did I get a roommate for the unit I was living in, but I rented out the first floor for top dollar. Within six months I had saved enough￼￼ to put down 30% on my next investment property and it just rolled from there. ￼ With interest rates as low as they are there are some great mortgage programs out there where you can get in for as little as 3 1/2% down for an FHA or 3% down for conventional mortgage. The bottom line is, do you research and take action. Don’t sit on the sidelines waiting for “the perfect opportunity“. Before you know it 10 years will have passed and you’ll be saying “I wish I did this before I wish I did that“.￼

@Cristopher Agosto thank you I'm looking for materials at the moment, kitchen cabinets and countertops, backsplash, wall tile for bathroom, lighting fixtures, and closet organization. I have a GC for the major work.

@Cristopher Agosto Hi Christopher, I'm in Lake Worth and have been real estate investing since 1997. Currently working a beach front condo flip in Fort Lauderdale and my first commercial warehouse rehab/ rental.

Nathan Olds · Answer

Last year, i purchased my first multifamily property to house hack in Lake Worth and it has been working great so far. I was having trouble making the numbers work in Broward because i am new to RE investing and do not have a strong network or experience with finding deals or doing major renovations.

@Cristopher Agosto I started my investment portfolio house hacking but that was 10 yrs ago. It’s possible to do now you just need to know your numbers and be financially responsible. If you have questions, message me and I’ll be honored to help you.
