Even that manager needs to be really hard worker and skilled in so many different areas...sales, marketing management, hiring, firing, reservations, computer skills, and more.   

One thing I've learned from my experience is that I do not set hard rules.

From my experience, when I dive into the costs associated with building an ADU—including construction expenses and financing options like hard money loans—it often doesn’t make financial sense.

My rule of thumb when walking with contractors is if they talk more about themselves and past projects compared to what they will do on this project thats a hard no. 

Your best bet since your working on your capital are going to be to use low money down hard-money lender.

We bought it for $90k they said it was worth $90k after $30k in repairs, then a second appraisal said $120k so we could get out of the Hard Money loan by getting a personal loan and maxing out our LOC again. 

The area i chose to buy the house in isnt super popular and I have had a hard time getting it filled Lessons learned?

If you plan on going the hard money route, most lenders will require an experienced, licensed GC to complete the rehab portion.Do you have the option to bring on an experienced partner for your first that can show you the ropes?

I can't give away all my locales but it's not hard to find them if you search around and ask people.

It's up to you how far to take this though.When we're faced with this, we try to hold the tenants accountable, by pushing hard to do self-showings.- Who better to show the house and speak positively about than a current tenant?
