Looks like there will be some grants and loans to assist SFR and duplex owners only in the form of a lein on your property.

Seems like I could possibly get a duplex with that kind of down payment. 

It sounds like you are looking to scale and get into flips!

Without knowing all of your specifics, I'd say that it's only worth holding on to if you can reasonably expect to have some really good appreciation in the near future (like 5 yrs)....Or, in the case where it would run well as a vacation rental, you could switch the usage, maybe?

I do not understand your remark as related to the DSCR loan.  2 ADUs are not allowed by f/f conventional financing but is not always enforced.Fortunately if you stay with the current tenant without a refi, by the time you pay principle it is likely the rent will have increased enough to absorb the increase mortgage payment. 

The only purpose of the account would be to collect payments and pay bills like taxes and insurance on assets held by the LLC.

On my PM biz $2M of coverage is like $200 a month. 

Knowing the rent will likely show up each month—even if the tenant has challenges—removes a lot of the uncertainty that can come with rentals.The people listing this apartment as a “Section 8 property” are likely trying to target buyers who value that stability.

@Nathan Gesner I like in CA, I’m scared of snow… unless I’m on a snowboarding trip!

I really like Granite Selection in Elk Grove.
