Thinking about house hacking? Here's what you need to know before you dive in. ⁣
⁣
Zoning and local regulations are non-negotiable. ADU legality, short-term rental rules, and multi-family zoning vary dramatically by city and neighborhood. What's allowed three blocks away may not be allowed on your property. Unpermitted units create liability headaches that outlast the savings. Do things by the book from the start. ⁣
⁣
Be honest about lifestyle fit. Sharing a property with tenants — whether strangers or family — requires a certain temperament and a willingness to handle uncomfortable conversations. Clear boundaries and realistic expectations matter. ⁣
⁣
And always run conservative numbers. If the math works with vacancy and maintenance built in, you're solid. If it only works at 100% occupancy, it's a risk. ⁣

That's nearly double what the National Association of Realtors is officially reporting — and if you're thinking about selling your home this summer, that number should change how you prepare.
Here's what's actually killing deals right now:

The home inspection contingency is the #1 deal-breaker, cited by 41% of top agents nationwide
Roof damage, foundation issues, and mold are the most common culprits
Buyers in today's market don't have extra budget to absorb big repairs — so when something shows up, they walk

And here's the part most sellers don't see coming.
When that buyer walks, your home goes back on the market with a higher day count. Every day it sits, buyers start wondering what's wrong with it. The deal didn't just fall apart — your negotiating position got weaker.
The sellers who are winning right now are the ones who know what's in their house before buyers do.
A pre-listing inspection isn't an expense. It's protection.
If you're thinking about selling this summer and want to know what buyers are going to find before they find it — let's talk. No pressure, no pitch. Just straight talk about what it actually takes to close in this market.

Nine percent of homes that go under contract right now never make it to closing. That’s nearly double what NAR is reporting — and if you’re thinking about selling this summer, it should change how you prepare.
Inspection contingencies are killing deals across the country right now. Buyers are walking away from roof damage, foundation issues, and mold because they don’t have the budget to absorb it. And when they walk, your home goes back on the market with a higher day count and a question mark attached to it.
The sellers who are winning right now are the ones who know what’s in their house before buyers do.
Tomorrow: 61% of buyers say this is their number one priority — and it has nothing to do with your kitchen remodel.

“Sell it quietly,” they said. Then Google did the opposite. 👀

Last week Google took home listings national — all 50 states. Photos, price, the whole thing, right inside the search results the second a buyer looks.

Here’s the part nobody pitching “private” and “off-market” wants to talk about: where does Google pull those listings? Straight off the MLS.

Not pocket listings. Not some brokerage’s walled garden. The MLS.

The biggest search company on earth looked at every “exclusive” feed out there — and bet its entire national home search on the MLS.

So when someone tells you the smart move is selling your house in the dark, ask one question: smarter for who?

Zillow studied 2.7 million sales. Homes sold off the MLS netted about 1.5% less — and in some markets almost 4%. On a Treasure Coast home, that’s real money walking out the door.

Want privacy and one agent running point? Totally fair — just choose it with your eyes open.

Thinking about selling in Martin, St. Lucie or Palm Beach this year? DM me the word WIN and I’ll show you exactly what going public does to your number.

No pressure. Straight talk. — Sean

Want to know the original house hack? Buy a duplex, triplex, or small multi-family. Live in one unit. Rent out the others. It's been working for decades — and it still does in 2026. ⁣
⁣
FHA loans allow you to buy properties with up to 4 units with as little as 3.5% down, as long as you live in one unit. Veterans can use a VA loan with zero down. And Freddie Mac's Home Possible program allows qualified buyers to put down just 3%. ⁣
⁣
The financing options are more accessible than most buyers realize. For those willing to share a property line with their tenants, the income potential is typically higher than an ADU, and the strategy is time-tested. If you're serious about house hacking, don't overlook the classic approach. ⁣

Multi-generational home buying hit a record high in 2024. 14% of all home purchases were multi-generational. Gen X buyers led the way at 19%. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 ⁣
⁣
This isn't a trend. It's a structural shift. ⁣
⁣
Among multi-generational buyers, 41% said the primary reason was to care for or support aging parents — the highest share since tracking began in 2015. Another 23% wanted to spend more time with their parents. For Gen X especially, who are often supporting both aging parents and adult children, a home designed to accommodate multiple generations solves several problems at once: caretaking, privacy, and cost. ⁣
⁣
House hacking doesn't always mean renting to strangers. Sometimes it means sharing a home — and the costs — with the people who matter most. ⁣

Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) have become the gold standard for house hacking in 2026 — and there's a reason why. 🏠 ⁣
⁣
As of March 2026, Fannie Mae allows lenders to count projected ADU rental income toward your mortgage qualification — up to 30% of your total qualifying income. That means the income potential of an ADU can help you qualify for a home you otherwise couldn't afford. ⁣
⁣
ADUs include: ⁣
🔹 Detached backyard cottages ⁣
🔹 Converted garages ⁣
🔹 Basement suites with separate entrances ⁣
⁣
They're increasingly legal, financially supported, and proven in the rental market. If affordability is your biggest barrier to homeownership, an ADU-eligible property might be the solution. ⁣

Greetings from the Straits of Florida 🌊 June 1 kicked off hurricane season, and from out here on the water it’s a reminder of how much this season can affect the market back home. Hurricane season is just one of many things that create uncertainty in our market — but here’s the good news: the insurance industry has finally had a chance to reform and recover, so that uncertainty around homeowners insurance is less of a factor than it’s been in years. 2026 is forecast below-average, State Farm and Citizens have filed rate cuts, and lawsuits are down 35%. The caveat? One major direct hit can reset the reinsurance market fast. Comment INSIDER for the Treasure Coast breakdown.
