Alamo Heights, Monte Vista, or Olmos Park - Garage Apartments

[Kyle Handy]

I'm working with a client that is considering the idea of "house hacking" a home in the above titled areas as well as any other similar types of neighborhoods in SA.  They are wanting to find something nice that has a garage apartment or detached quarters that they could rent out to supplement the monthly payment.  Willing to spend between $300k-500k.  Does anyone know if these areas allow for this (I think, yes...) but more importantly what minimum requirements would this detached space need to be considered "rentable".  Thanks.  *Bonus question, what other neighborhoods should I look at for similar level of properties that may offer these types of homes?  Castle Hills?

Monte Vista and Alta Vista have some opportunities with rentable detached units.  I would also see if they are interested in areas like Lavaca.  The convenience to downtown and everything going on in Southtown make those detached units great for short term vacation rentals.
