House Hacking: Live for Free While Building Wealth

House hacking is a smart strategy for first-time investors. Here's how it works:

• Purchase a multi-unit property (2-4 units)
• Live in one unit and rent out the others
• Use rental income to cover your mortgage and expenses
• Build equity while living for free or at a reduced cost

We can help you find the perfect property for house hacking in Chicago's up-and-coming neighborhoods.

Leverage FHA 203k Loans for Maximum Returns

FHA 203k loans are a game-changer for investors looking to renovate properties:

• Finance both the purchase and renovation with one loan
• Low down payment of 3.5% for credit scores 580 and above
• Ideal for multi-unit properties (2-4 units)
• Live in one unit and rent out the others

Our team can guide you through the 203k loan process and help you find properties with high potential for appreciation after renovation.
