We’re really excited this week for the 20th and final episode of season one. This week, we had the amazing opportunity to speak with Maria from Handful of Thoughts! Maria is a financial blogger who shares her journey and stories about being a mom while pursuing financial independence. Her house hack story begins in Canada, where Maria and her soon to be husband move into a three-bedroom home. During the process of moving in, Maria contacts a younger sister and a friend about potentially renting out the extra two bedrooms in the house.

 Before she knew it, Maria’s mortgage net cost was less than half of what it would’ve been without roommates. By combining a roommate style house hack with an accelerated mortgage option, Maria was able to completely pay off her house in just 5 years!
