House-Hack TIC Sold to Friend-Landlord Duo—Urban Living, Income Strategy, Low Buy-In
The file
This Mid-Market 5-bed, 3.5-bath TIC wasn’t built for the average buyer—but it was perfect for the right one. I targeted a niche audience: young professionals who wanted the upside of homeownership with the income flexibility of a “house-hack” setup. Two friends fit the bill—they loved the location, each got their own en-suite, and rented out the remaining rooms to offset housing costs. Instead of being master tenants, they became landlords—with minimal capital outlay. I built a custom financial model to walk them through rent offsets, mortgage impact, and long-term ROI. That clarity gave them the confidence to convert from tenants to owners, and gave my seller a smooth exit without ever needing to list.
If you’re holding a non-traditional asset, I’ll match it to the kind of buyer who sees the opportunity—and close the gap between interest and action.
