2nd step to house hacking with an ADU
I purchased my first home in Eagle Mountain and built the home with an ADU for the basement (separate entrance, thermostat, etc.). I have loved using this strategy for my first home and would love to house hack again and use the same model for my 2nd home.
However, if I move out of my current house and rent it out my understanding is that I won't be allowed to rent out the top and bottom units separately since it isn't classified as a duplex. Is this accurate? Or is there another creative (legal) workaround where I can still move out and rent out both units? I have a great interest rate on the first home and don't have any plans to sell it. First time on BiggerPockets so I appreciate all the help!
