House Hacking in Tampa/St. Pete
I am looking to move to the Tampa/St. Pete area soon and want to house hack. I have looking around the USF and downtown Tampa areas, but I am open to wherever in the general Tampa, or outer areas, that will generate a good rent for rent by the room strategy. Are there suggestions on what specific areas to look and what I should expect to be able to charge per room? Any help/suggestions are greatly appreciated!

@Bailey Clay Tampa has a lot to offer. Areas near downtown, Heights, and Ybor have opportunities for house hacking. If you are looking for STR then recommend staying in Tampa city limits which is a little more STR friendly. If you are looking for LTR then this opens your aperture a bit. I would recommend analyzing for both STR and LTR, ideally, the property should perform well in both instances. Before I start your journey, highly recommend finding a good lender to help with the money piece of things too. Finding a good team is paramount, interview a few agents and lenders. Good luck!!!!!
