Hi Daniel, 

I can't stress enough how valuable house hacking is when you're getting started. I believe it can fit anyone's situation, even if they have no desire to go beyond that in terms of investing. I am on my second house hack in 3 years just North of Boston. It has been super beneficial for me which is why I try to help others on their journey (IG @househackandhustle). 

I could talk all day about this but if I had to keep it short I would say these are a few of my biggest tips:

-Find the right agent, ideally a former/ex house hacker, bust at the least should be investor friendly

-Don't get stuck in analysis paralysis, I guarantee you won't hit a homerun your first go around but getting on base already puts you wayyy further ahead then most people

-Never stop learning, even when you get a house hack, there will always be someone out there smarter than you and learning from them can be huge, even one tip can save you so much time/money/or headaches. 

Feel free to connect!
