In this Podcast, Chris and Dominic discuss house hacking, subject-to-investing, and creative financing as alternative methods to get into the housing market. House hacking involves purchasing a larger property than needed and renting out additional rooms or units to subsidize the mortgage.

These strategies can be used individually or in combination to find creative solutions for buying a house. In this conversation, Dominic and Chris discuss the importance of generational wealth and how it can be achieved through real estate. They share a personal story about Dominic's father helping someone in distress and how it led to the acquisition of a rental property that has been in the family for generations.
