Should I self manage a multi family?
Hello,
I want to house hack for my next investment. Don't have all the details worked out yet, but I've heard it's a great wealth-builder strategy and a great way to build more capital for the next investment.
I've just been thinking about whether it's wise to self-manage for safety and privacy reasons. What if I have to evict someone that technically lives under the same roof as me... or simply just sending a "Notice to Comply" I feel could create tension.
Please let me know if you're someone who has self-managed a house hack and was it worth it? Or should I start factoring the expense of a PM?
Thanks!

Having property management when you are house hacking would be like hiring a cleaner if you owned a cleaning company. No. If you haven't done it before, you want to learn how to be a landlord. House hacking is also way harder to cash flow with mortgage rates, so you need all the profit you can get.
