Hi, 

I was wondering what are ideal numbers for a house hack. I heard on a BP podcast, the income should be at least half of the monthly mortgage payment. Is this true? These numbers come from a Brooklyn property (short sale) that i analyzed for practice. Whats the big deal with a short sale anyway? They seem to be the only deals around.
