My husband and I are building wealth through ! We bought a duplex as our first home and rent out the other side while we renovate ours. Here are my five five top tips in investing and house hacking

1. **Cash Flow Potential:** House hacking, especially with a duplex, allows you to generate rental income by leasing out one unit while living in the other. This steady cash flow can help cover mortgage expenses and provide additional income.

2. **Equity Buildup:** As you pay down your mortgage through rental income, you’re simultaneously building equity in the property. Over time, this equity growth can serve as a valuable asset and contribute to your overall wealth.

3. **Tax Advantages:** Real estate investments offer various tax benefits, including deductions for mortgage interest, property taxes, and operating expenses. These incentives can significantly reduce your taxable income and increase your overall return on investment.

4. **Appreciation Potential:** Historically, real estate has shown a tendency to appreciate over the long term. By choosing properties in strategic locations or areas experiencing growth, you may benefit from property value appreciation, further enhancing your investment returns.

5. **Diversification of Assets:** Real estate provides a diversification option beyond traditional investment vehicles like stocks and bonds. Owning physical assets, such as a duplex, can help spread risk and create a more balanced investment portfolio.

Some buyers think that to buy a home you have to put 20% down, but that's NOT THE CASE! The average down payment for First-Time Homebuyers is actually just 6%! Here’s a look at a comparison of the down payment some THINK you have to put down (20%) vs a more realistic down payment! Let’s chat if you’re ready to make the leap towards homeownership!

You could be sitting on more equity than you realize! Here’s a look at how quick equity builds up, when you consider your down payment, the principal you’ve paid over time, and how much your home has appreciated since purchased! If you’d like to see how much tappable equity you have in your home, I can run this same calculation for you - lets talk!

With rates being the highest they’ve been in 2 decades, affordability can be a real challenge! A 2-1 Buydown is one of the many tactics that I can use to help make buying more affordable.
