Duplex House Hack Percentage PITI

[Michael Brown]

For homeowners who live in one unit of a 2 family and rent out the other, what percentage of their total housing expenses (PITI) do you consider great and average for the rental unit to cover?

[Aaron Zimmerman]

First, total housing expenses are not just PITI, there's other costs such as repairs and capex.

theres no set $$ amount but id look to make sure the property saved you money while living there and also cash flows/break even upon move out
