Buying in a high COLA with loss protection is a no-brainer in my book, but only if you expect to relo again.

Here's the City link for you to reference. https://www.chicago.gov/city/en/depts/doh/provdrs/homeowners...1) ADU regulations specifically exclude Short-Term Rentals so don't do it if the intention is to short-term rental. 2) The ceiling height oh 6'10" is almost guaranteed to trigger digging a basement if you want to formalize as an ADU unit, especially if that height is further reduced by pipes or HVAC. 3)Ingress/egress is an issue for renting, as is that any bedroom also will need two (ie operable window/doorway).

Focus on high-demand rental areas (suburbs for multifamily, tourist/business hubs for STRs) and consider scaling with the BRRRR method to build passive income.

This means you can sell, lease, or pass on the property as you see fit, just like any other property owner.Full Ownership RightsYou have the same rights as a Mexican property owner, including the ability to sell, lease, transfer, or mortgage the propertyLegal SecurityThe Bank Trust is a well-established legal mechanism in Mexico, ensuring your investment is secure and protected under Mexican law.Renewable TermsThe trust is set up for 50 years and can be renewed indefinitely, allowing you and future generations to maintain control over the property.Estate PlanningThe trust makes it easier to pass the property on to heirs, simplifying the inheritance process and reducing potential legal complications.Although the process might initially seem complex, it is entirely managed and supervised by a reputable banking entity.

Not a full fledged house hack, but enough to take the sting out of the rate we got.Not all of Citrus Heights is the same, but the area near Fair Oaks/Orangevale/Carmichael has a good balance of price and quality.

The BRRRR strategy was great a couple of years ago, but it's much harder to do now because of the high interest rates.

This approach simplifies the sale and avoids unnecessary legal or tax complications.If she want to share the proceeds and tax obligation in a technical way, she need to file a partnership return for this property.This post does not create a CPA-Client relationship.

By creating the Texas Stock Exchange, Lee hopes to address the high costs of going and staying public.TXSE closed its initial capital raise at $161 million, which the company claims makes it "the most well-capitalized exchange" to file a registration.

I would like Lawrence or areas that are starting to increase in value but not as high currently. 

Ensuring your rental market can sustain these costs will help maintain profitability over time.The 7% DSCR loan is relatively high, and refinancing later at a lower rate could improve your long-term cash flow.
