It meets all requirements for sure (lot size, parking space) not sure about exact frontage space.  
The main floor has its own HVAC unit /central. The other unit uses a window unit and gas fireplace heater.

I remember hearing about a company that can get accurate water metering for individual units of a house on a BP podcast, not sure about electricity though.

Thanks  for your response!

I wouldn’t mind getting an R2 Zoned duplex, if you have any leads or deals I would be happy to talk about it. I currently don’t see any available in the areas I’m targeting.

@Brian Levredge

It's listed as Chattanooga but in Red Bank, 37415. I mentioned in my previous post it was built as a 2 unit building originally in the 60s and not a SFH. wonering if that would change anything, or maybe get a R1 exemption? The building fits all the zoning rules for a R2 and it has 2 separate drive ways.

@Curt Smith
Thanks for the detailed response Curt! This house already has a completely independent mother in law suite with bedrooms, kitchen, full bathroom and a separate driveway as well. This was created by the builder/previous owner. The original owner had rented out the downstairs up until the 2000s

Hello everyone,

I am looking to buy a SFH with a full in-law suite in Red Bank and trying to rent it out as a duplex after I house hack it for 1 year to satisfy primary residency status for a FHA loan. The house is currently zoned as a R1A, and I was wondering if anyone has any experience with rezoning in this area to make it a legit duplex to rent out later and have a management company take it over. Is rezoning even necessary to pull this off? Thanks everyone!
