It's crazy how he said, "I didn't go to college because I'm not smart enough" half-jokingly but look at this guy, he is house hacking at 22 setting his life up for success. It really proves that a college education does not dictate a person's intelligence or their potential level of success in life.

I house hack with a family of 4, soon to be 5. I can testify that it changed my family’s finances, is part of the reason we save 40% on 1 income, and makes us much closer to FIRE because of this one decision.

I also just had my 3rd daughter making us a family of 5 Living sacrificially on 1 income in order to save for a home. A few days ago I came across the option of house hacking. Does it really work? I wouldn’t want to invest in something and lose what we’ve worked hard for these past couple of years.

I think they are perfect for house hacking because they provide more of a singe-family-home feeling, but you get the benefit of a renter helping pay your mortgage.

At least for me you really explained those last steps well,. the strategy you used for your first purchase and what you'll be attempting on your second! Very awesome, myself I had about 20K saved, franchise would be great. I went some other routes though. I think what scares people the most about house hacking is that they're dealing with tons of cash which they don't have, wings credit financing, refinancing the whole ordeal, sounds overwhelming. But unlike those last steps you were talking about, didn't have the money you did the FHA loan add a percent and you were able to move in provided you stayed there a year and have 6 months backup financial storage. By the way great video great story great notes, and I'm surprised I found you with such little views and subscribers. Two things, what state major city are you in and have you heard of BiggerPockets podcast

Your debt to income ratio also matters. I got pre-approved for an owner occupied FHA loan but it was on the low end because 1) I had a student loan payment and 2) I have a child support payment listed on my divorce decree that counts as debt, even though I have 50/50 custody and don’t actually pay child support. Now I have to go to court to have my decree amended. My credit score is really good but the debt to income ratio can work for you or against you

@@GabeBult Save yourself a headache and use a service like TurboTenant (not advocating for them, just an example). There are many options that tenants pay to go through the process so you don't have to pay a dime. When you get a tenant, and you think they are the right fit. If your service only provides 1 credit check, say with Experian. Run their credit with another one for cross reference ever if you pay for it. Many times some creditors don't file with all 3 of the agencies (Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion).

Our house was purchased as a fixer upper. It needed a lot. It's not something I'd recommend people do unless one of you is good at home renovation. My husband is a carpenter. We replaced the windows, kitchen, dining room, added a bathroom, replaced the other one, etc. In other words, we gutted it room by room. It's worth more than most of the homes on the block now. We may buy a multi family building next.

Great video Gabe, I'm nearing the ready stage to pull the trigger on my first house hack. My goal is by end of next year. As a military veteran I do have the VA Mortgage available to me which could allow me to get into a house hack with $0 down and NO PMI, but the closing time could take 40 to 50 days and that might mean missing out on some good deals. If you haven't already maybe sometime you can talk about the First Look Initiative which can help aspiring home-buyers and house-hackers get in on good deals before the flippers with large amounts of capital snap them up.
@GabeBult
@GabeBult 5 жыл бұрын
thats awesome! thank you for your service. The VA is a great program and even if it does take longer to close i would do that then just get another deal with 20% later with all the money you saved lol for sure! ill be doing one on that soon! there are definitely some great programs and incentives for first time home buyers and some hacks ;)

My family and I are currently house hacking a duplex using a VA loan. Closing time in our experience was very similar to a conventional loan. We put 5% down to save a few dimes on the funding fee, but zero down is a great option too! Recently made a video about some of our house hacking experiences. I'm hoping to post a video soon about our experience with using a VA loan.

Where I am living, a 1,000 sqr foot flat costs about a million dollars. On average, property prices are rising by 5% a year. That means the price is rising by 50,000 dollars a year. Young people would have to save over 100% of their salary just to save up for the annual price increase. It's important to note, that while saving money and start early are usually good advice, depending on where one is living, or what the living conditions are, it is not always possible.

I always feel as if I have learned something useful after watching your videos. I'm 18, and just graduated highschool. I'm going to go to school to become a teacher, and I'll automatically get in my first year for $40,000 (central florida in case you were wondering who is screwing over their teachers) so hopefully I can use your tips to save some money for the probably decade or so I teach, and then once I have a degree is psychology which is what I'll be going for afterwards, and I plan on using your tips on general frugal living to put away as much money as I can, and maybe once I am a psychologist or whatever I decide to do in the feild of psychology generally, or even before that if I have enough money, I can do a bit of the house hacking till I start a family and have those properties flow money into my bank account hopefully indefinitely. But if the housing market crashes, and I have the money for it, once it reaches cheap for me to do it even if it is much later, I could buy a few houses and make money off of it. Thank you for all of your advice.

That's awesome! I don't think you'll have to wait that long for a house hack. I was only making about that much a year before I got mine because of the FHA you needs very little down. Even 40 thousand a year you could save it 15-20k in in 2 years Definitely keep me updated! If there's anything I can do to help let me know

Old vid but you talked about making $1,000 cashflow from that property when you move onto the next. How do you find properties that cash flow that much? I'm looking in my area and can't find something that cashflows at all let alone cashflow $1,000 a month. Maybe I am calculating it wrong. How do you calculate/find properties that cash flow?

Thanks for sharing your tips. You mentioned you knew how to work the numbers to know enough if it's a good investment. You sound smart on that - Please let us know how to learn that as well. Properties there are really cheap $200k. Here at the San Francisco bay area, the prices are way. more exorbitant. Where are you located? so maybe I can finally own a property now that I'm closer to retirement age and the prices here keep going up.

Sometimes with more expensive houses the numbers just don't work and you have to use a different method if you start getting into multimillion-dollar buildings it gets tricky and you might have to do rent hacking or something like that depending on how much money you have

Were you limited on the choice of properties that were accepted for an FHA loan? Were there more specific qualifications the property had to abide by? Since it’s a government insured loan? Up to codes and safety? When I bought my first property I found myself extremely limited with the properties available to me if I had chosen and FHA loan. Which is why I ultimately went with conventional. It’s hard to find FHA insured multi family properties in my area. I’m about 30 minutes north of you in the lakes region area.
