<prompt> Human: So last year I purchased a home that had two additional units in the back yard. One unit is 21 and other is 11. All units were previously renovated by the seller and are in great shape. I live upfront in the main house thats a 21. I paid 250k for it. I only put 3.5 down and currently financing through an FHA loan. My monthly mortgage is 1810.00... yeah MIP sucks, but we had no other choice at the time, so we went with FHA. Im currently renting the units out for 900 and 725 respectively. Ive been doing this for 1 full year now, and I must say, its probably the best single decision Ive ever made in my life. Im living virtually mortgage free, and can use my income towards savings etc. Ive only had my big boy job for 2 years. So I have so much to catch up on. I have literally no retirement savings besides about a few thousand in a Roth IRA. Im 30 years old. Salary:50kSavings: 4K doubles as emergency savings for my rental unitsWife makes 40k She has no retirement savings either. Monthly Bills: Electricity: 60Water: 80Gas: 40Tenant water: 80 we pay their waterRental home insurance: 62.50 Car: 700 month financing 2 used carsCar insurance: 250 full coverage both carsPhone:122 two linesHow are we currently doing? And what do we need to work on to be in a better place financially? Assistant: Why are you calling this house hacking instead of being a landlord?Human: Because we live on site also, and the rent offsets our mortgage Assistant: For what its worth, I dont know why people are down voting you.House hacking is the newish term for what youre doing specifically. Human: because its a stupid term for something that already had a name.Assistant: Why are you so caught up with the name of it? It doesnt fucking matter.  <response>: On the contrary, it matters as much as make-believe internet points do.
