Post: How to sell Attached Homes -- HOA required? Atlanta area

Hi, one option for me is to construct 3-4 attached townhomes on my property. However, living in Atlanta, I've never seen attached townhomes outside of a HOA setting, where a large builder has developed a large number of properties.

On TV, of course, I see lots of attached homes for sale up north. 

Are there other types of common property ways to set up the property. Seems silly for 3-4 townhomes to have a HOA. But someone will need to cut the grass.

Can someone explain how people with attached homes share the wall, the grass, etc.

Sorry if this is a dumb question... I just have no experience with it.

Post: Would three residential units over commercial (office/retail) count?

I'm looking to construct a mixed use building with ground floor office/retail with two-story residential rental units above.   This doesn't fit this forums definition of commercial, so if not here, where would I post my questions?

Thanks!

Gosh, so many questions.

My goal for my current investment is to develop and rent as a long term investment.  Not only do we want the income, but we'd like to use part of the new space for our own business purposes.

I've purchased a 1930s home on a .73 acre site zoned neighborhood commercial.  So, it can be live work.  But the zoning also permits multi-family, straight commercial (service businesses, straight retail, or a mixed use combination of all.

As for how it came about... we were looking for residential flip opportunities in the area and happened on this property the day a FSBO sign went up. Due to the size and zoning, it seems a win/win.

The house has lots of issues and is just 1600 square feet, and the potential for income is of course better by improving the site.

I'm hoping to tap into knowledge on this site.   Sadly, all I have to offer right now is the opportunity for others to hone their counseling skills. :)   That said, there may be partnership opportunities... and I will definitely need architects, builders, etc.

Thanks for the recommendation on the REIA!

Hi, I've taken the plunge and bought a propery -- likely teardown.  Will be asking lots of questions.
