House Hacking Basics

House hacking is a great way to get into the multi family market without spending a fortune. By following some simple tips, you can make sure that your house hacking experience is a successful one. In this blog post, we will discuss financing options, property tax rates, and more!

When it comes to financing your house hack, there are a few different options available to you. You can take out a conventional mortgage, an FHA loan, or a VA loan. Each option has its own set of pros and cons, so be sure to do your research before making a decision!

Property tax rates can vary greatly depending on the location of your house hack. In some areas, property taxes are very high, while in others they are relatively low. Be sure to factor this into your decision-making process when choosing a property to house hack!

When making an offer on a property, it is important to keep in mind that you are not just buying the home itself - you are also responsible for any tenants that may be living there. Be sure to set clear rules and expectations from the start so that there are no surprises down the road!

Finally, be sure to set a good price for your rental units. If you charge too much, you may have trouble finding tenants. However, if you charge too little, you could end up losing money each month. Do some market research to find a happy medium!

By following these tips, you can be sure that your house hacking experience is a successful one! What are you waiting for? Start searching for your perfect property with a realtor today!
