This is the part of house hacking most people never hear. 🤯 When you buy a duplex to live in, lenders can count roughly 75% of the market rent from the second unit as your qualifying income. So if that unit rents for $2,400, that's around $1,800 a month added to your application. That extra income can be the difference between qualifying for a single condo or qualifying for a two unit property where a tenant helps pay your mortgage every month. More property, more help, same paycheck. 📈 Pair that with 3.5% down FHA and the math starts working for people who thought ownership was years away. 👇 Comment "QUALIFY" or text me and I'll connect you with a lender who can run your real numbers. 📲 562-600-9793 📧 Ray@Mira-RealEstate.com 📸 @raymiramontes_realestate Ray Miramontes, Circle Real Estate #HouseHacking #FHALoan #DuplexLiving #FirstTimeHomeBuyer #RealEstateInvesting #LongBeach #LosAngelesRealEstate #BuildWealth #MultifamilyInvesting #HomeBuyingTips
