"Michael was incredible in helping my fiancé and I find our first home. We had some pretty unique criteria and had picked out a region where we thought we could afford. Michael, a owner of a few fixed-up properties himself, kept his ear to the ground and found a home much closer to the city than we ever thought we could've paid for. He was instrumental in the inspection process, the thorough financial analysis, the the offering and closing. He even pitched in help for rehabbing the home afterwards to earn rental income. Would give Michael a strong recommend!"

About Michael

🌧️ Seattle Investor & OG HouseHacker | 🤑 Helped 90 Clients HouseHack | 🏘️ Own 17 Rentals & 5 Airbnbs | 🏗️ Built 5 DADU's

You can buy a home and pay $0 a month to live there… or build a DADU (Detached Accessory Dwelling Unit) & grow your investment by 50% or more in year 1.

Seriously.

At HouseHack Seattle we help YOU build the consistent, scalable rental income you need to reach financial independence, pursue your wildest dreams, and spend the quality time you want with the people you love. We focus on creative and high-yield strategies to build wealth quickly and reliably in real estate, including:

1. HouseHacking:

Buy a home with extra bedrooms or extra units, live in one, and rent the rest. Your tenants cover your mortgage & expenses, and you live for free! Combine this with a low down payment ($20k or less in some cases) and you have the core formula that helped founders Michael & Jess Haas achieve a $2 Million net worth by the time they turned 30.

2. DADU Development: 

There is a modern-day gold rush going on in Seattle; we’re talking about DADU’s (Detached Accessory Dwelling Units), the backyard cottages that can now be built on nearly 70% of the residential lots here in Seattle. New zoning laws allow these 1,000 sqft homes to be built, financed, and even sold separately from the existing home on the property. Or, tear down a old home and build 3 new ones (SFH + AADU + DADU) on a lot that previously could only accommodate one! We’re seeing massive 50% + returns on these projects, and whether this is your 1st or your 100th build, we have experienced builder, contractor, and lender referrals to help you every step of the way.

3. BRRRR:

Buy, Renovate or Build, Rent, Refinance, & Repeat! This strategy allows you to re-use the same cash over and over again to acquire multiple properties when other investors might only be able to acquire one.

4. Short Term (Airbnb) Rentals:

With local travel surging and the favorable loan products available to Airbnb Investors (10% down, low interest rates), investing in Short Term Rentals can yield significantly higher cashflow than other investments. Owning money-making vacation homes all around the world doesn’t sound bad, does it?

5. Long Term (Traditional) Rentals:

Consistent cashflow and inexpensive property management options make this the ultimate source of passive income. Although Long Term Rental cashflow has fallen in recent years, our team specializes in ADU’s, DADU’s, Rehabs, Conversions, & Tiny Houses to create above-average returns.

6. Off-Market:

In today’s hot market we pull every lever we can to get you the best real estate deals, including sending mail & calling potential sellers to source off-market deals.

HouseHack Seattle is a group of Active Investors, Avid HouseHackers, & Dedicated Real Estate Agents laser-focused on finding you homes and investment properties with huge income potential. We practice what we preach here - every member of the team has completed at least one HouseHack, DADU, or Airbnb Investment (most many more!). HouseHacking and Investing has changed my family’s life by giving us the freedom and financial flexibility to focus on what matters most, and we'd love to help you do the same! Real Estate & Investing can be complex and intimidating, but we promise to act as your expert consultant throughout the entire process, guiding you through your 1st (or 100th!) investment, providing stacks of high-quality resources, and answering all your questions along the way. Rockstars know Rockstars, so we provide referrals to vetted contractors, property managers, & lenders so you have a strong team behind you.
