About this Event

House Hacking Happy Hour 🍻

Live for less. Invest smarter. Build wealth.


Want to reduce — or eliminate — your housing payment while building long-term wealth? It starts with a drink and a plan.

Join The Hampton Collective (THC), Landmark Property Management, and Ace Insurance Partners for a House Hacking Happy Hour at Bar 10 in Chicago. This casual, after-work event is designed for first-time buyers and aspiring investors who want to learn how multi-unit ownership can unlock powerful wealth-building opportunities without needing massive upfront capital.



What Is House Hacking?

House hacking is the strategy of purchasing a 2–4 unit property, living in one unit, and renting out the others to help offset your mortgage — sometimes entirely. With the right approach (and as little as 3.5% down sometimes $0 down), you can build equity, generate cash flow, and create a strong foundation for long-term wealth.



What to Expect:

🍹 A relaxed happy hour at Bar 10 that includes 2 complimentary drink tickets per person
🎤 A live, informal panel discussion led by THC and Landmark Property Management, plus local experts
💬 Open Q&A with trusted lenders, attorneys, inspectors, and real estate professionals
📋 Practical, take-home insights you can actually use



Topics We’ll Cover:
  • How to qualify for low down payment financing
  • What to look for when buying a 2–4 unit property in Chicago
  • Tenant considerations, protections, and risk mitigation
  • Legal, inspection, and insurance essentials
  • When property management makes sense — and how it helps you scale

Who Should Attend:
  • First-time buyers ready to stop renting
  • Future investors exploring multi-unit ownership
  • Anyone interested in lowering their housing costs through real estate
  • Individuals and families focused on building long-term wealth

Event Details:

📍 Location: Bar 10, Chicago, IL
📆 Date: Monday, February 3
🕕 Time: 5:00-7:00pm CT
🎟️ Cost: FREE with RSVP (space is limited)


Come for the drinks, tacos and conversation — leave with a clear roadmap for turning your primary residence into your first investment property.
