Barrett, The Honors College Thesis/Creative Project Collection
Barrett, The Honors College at Arizona State University proudly showcases the work of undergraduate honors students by sharing this collection exclusively with the ASU community.
Barrett accepts high performing, academically engaged undergraduate students and works with them in collaboration with all of the other academic units at Arizona State University. All Barrett students complete a thesis or creative project which is an opportunity to explore an intellectual interest and produce an original piece of scholarly research. The thesis or creative project is supervised and defended in front of a faculty committee. Students are able to engage with professors who are nationally recognized in their fields and committed to working with honors students. Completing a Barrett thesis or creative project is an opportunity for undergraduate honors students to contribute to the ASU academic community in a meaningful way.

Historically, no other asset has created more wealth and the opportunity for inter-generational wealth than real estate.1 However, not all investments are profitable and not all that have invested in real estate have generated wealth for themselves. In particular, this paper seeks to examine a particular strategy known as house hacking which can help individuals in their pursuit to invest in and own real estate. 2 There will be a thorough description of the term “house hacking”, an analysis of the social and economic conditions that foster this investment opportunity, an evaluation of benefits and risks, overview of legal considerations, and I will use my own specific situation as a case in point. The focus is to educate the reader on this specific investment strategy, demonstrate why this is a viable plan, and provide a sustainable model for future investing.
