Hi Kailas - 

Yes, you can typically rent out the main house and the ADU to separate tenants on separate leases (so long as you're compliant with city regulations/restrictions). It's similar to a triplex in that you're renting three units, however it is a single family residence with an ADU...three leases in place does not change that. Happy to connect as I'm from Boston and familiar with this market.

Hey Anne – Sounds like you've got a great plan lined up. Reaching 5 doors in 5 years is definitely within reach, and focusing on the BRRRR method in appreciating markets sounds like a smart way to go. Have you started looking at specific markets yet, or are you still narrowing down your options?

Hey Elia - Welcome to BP!

What markets and strategies are you intersted in as you continue to grow? 

Hey Chelsea - Highly reccomend reaching out to @Zach Edelman. He frequently works with STR investors in the Smokies

Hey Ben, welcome to BP!

I'm also based in Tampa. Would love to connect!

Hey Stephanie - If you're open to STRs, they tend to perform well in Orange County. You could even consider an AirBnBRRRR strategy, which combines short-term rentals with the BRRRR method. Let me know if you're interested—I can send over some more info about the market drivers out there

Hi Rochelle - 

Congrats on getting started with BRRRR and fix/flip. The reason you're seeing these terms often comes down to experience. For first-time or newer investors, lenders tend to be a bit more conservative with leverage and rates because they consider experience a key factor in risk assessment.

As you build a track record of successful flips/rehabs, you'll typically qualify for better terms, like higher leverage/reduced down payments. Once lenders see that you’ve proven yourself, it can open up more favorable terms, and some might even go as high as 90% or more on the purchase.
