BRRRR or Build Garage w/ Apartment?
I have finally started. Did loan app today for a cash out refi (~30K). But I don't know what would be a better option with the money.
Option 1: Build a Garage with a 2BR apartment on my primary residence property. Similar to this:

Rent it for $450-$550/month, cashflow $200-$300
OR
Option 2: BRRR a 30K house
It seems it might be smarter to do a BRRR just because I imagine it would be easier to pull the money back out this way to do it again.
Any thoughts?
