Hannah McCoy graduated from nursing school in 2019 making $22 per hour. In today’s economy, that income didn’t go very far, but Hannah was determined to build a life around experiences rather than working grueling 3-12 nurse shifts. She moved out of her parents house into a rental in 2019 to start her adult life, but something didn’t feel right. Hannah didn’t appreciate the feeling of paying down the landlord’s debt so she decided to reverse the roles! It didn’t take long before Hannah identified a suitable househack duplex that she could live in and also rent out to lower her monthly living expenses. Before long Hannah was making good money as an ER nurse and soon transitioned into being a travel nurse, which came with a bit more income and therefore the opportunity to purchase more property. Today, Hannah sits on two duplexes (2020 & 2021) a SFR rental (2020) and also her primary residence (2022). Hannah plans on building her portfolio to 20 units before she hands it off to third party management, and at that point, she’ll be enjoying a life of fitness and nutrition coaching!
