Live in ADU and STR?

Maurice D.

Posted

I have a property in an ADU friendly city. (Accessory Dwelling Unit - AKA in-law suit)

I want to build an attached ADU studio for myself and STR the rest of the house (4 beds/3 baths).

Is there a negative stigma in any way when the owner is present on the side of the house?  it is sort of a duplex scenario, so one wall would be shared but not accessible from each other.  Separate entrances/garages from the front.

The bonus here is if I could also book the studio on occasion and when both book concurrently, I would travel and stay elsewhere.  On Nights the studio books and the house doesn't I sleep in the house.

Thanks

One of our STRs is next to our house, (but completely separate). People actually seem to enjoy the interaction....but we are really cool hosts :-)
