Be great to send you my customers looking for a new home I work with a lot of investors Nationwide. 

We're looking to build partnerships that would allow many of the potential customers that reach out to us a route towards financing these.  

It works like this:(1) Save up enough money for a down payment(2) Buy a single family home that you will Airbnb/VRBO(3) Ensure the “average period of customer use” is <=7 days(4) Materially participate (5) Cost segregate the property, resulting in large depreciation deductions(6) Use the losses from step 5 to offset your W2 incomeWhat makes this possible is that operating an STR is considered “non-passive.”

Are you utilizing REPS?

We want to travel and invest and are considering converting this short term rental to a long term rental to avoid sales tax, paying utilities and general management of the property. 

It now cash flows beautifully, which I continue to utilize for other my other properties. 

They need to do all their due diligence including understanding the value that will be added by the ADU, the finance options available, the consequences of adding the ADU (rent control, property taxes, rental limitations, etc), etc.Good luck As with all things, it depends on the investor and the equity.If they are able to leverage existing equity to buy it under a HEL or HELOC, then they are adding equity with no out of pocket expenses, and adding immediate and longterm cashflow to existing stock.We like ADU's because there isn't more land being created in our city that is landlocked...but there is more density available to those with large lot under-utilized sfh.In my market, it typically costs $2 to add less than $1 of value on single build ADUs.  

If the property is sub-metered/ if you intend to have the tenants pay utilities make sure to mention that to them. 

I had a few people interested only after I dropped the price down to $2100/month for a 4 Bed/3.5 Bath, utilities included, and I was the cheapest house in the area for that size on FF (we also allow dogs, which many don't).  

We focus on exceptional customer service by aligning our solutions with client needs, while innovation drives us to continuously improve processes and embrace new ideas.
