@John Boby R1 usually means only one unit, but now days you can also add an ADU. You need to directly check with the building department of the city that the property is located in.

@Viney Khera sounds like you are trying to do this on your own.  I don't recommend it and can refer you to my eviction attorney if you wish.  Time is money and you will waste your time.

@Sonia Arreguin the best way is to subscribe for Propstream or Property Radar.  If your RE agent is too busy, it may be time to get one that is more experienced.  Check out the local meetup this month in your area:

@Danielle Carrillo welcome to BP in the OC.  The best way to start is checking out the local network groups and who is actually doing deals.  This is a local group in the OC:

I have been inundated by companies offering the next best solution for lead generation.  AI sounds great, but I don't see a track record of success and every time I google the company the reviews are not great.  I want to know your thoughts and have you found any that are working?

@Shane Elias-Calles I would normally tell you NOT to pay off your debt and use that money to make more, but since you have the ability to get that money back anytime with your HELOC, then pay that off first.
