Accessory dwelling units (ADUs) are becoming more and more popular nationwide.

Currently, I live in house with a adu (accessory dwelling unit).

This strategy starts to compound when you find homes that have an ADU (accessory dwelling unit, casita, bungalow, etc…) along with the main house.

While Limited Lodging is a permissible accessory use to Household Living, it is not permissible unless (i) the unit is the primary tenant's principal residence and (ii) the tenant lives in the unit for more than 6 months.

Live in the accessory space and STR the primary space.

That was then rented out while construction started to convert a 275 sq ft detached garage to an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU).

Sales, Service, Repairs, Rentals, Accessories (in particular, helmets and safety equipment).

Sometimes a deal can be slightly negative because you're living there as a house hack now that is a different story because you might "know," that when you move out it will be positive or positive after you raise rents and move out (lets say its a fourplex 4 flat for Chicago folks, and 4plex for us west coasters).In this case, it might be lucrative because in this example you control the "move/out," and conversion from negative cashflow to a positive cashflow scenario so the future potential is definitive versus some hope and prayer that you will someday cashflow (smoking hopeium so to speak).I've also seen some buy negatively cashflow properties here in Seattle PNW (pacific northwest) areas even after they move out (its still negatively cashflowing), but the aim was to build ADU or accessory dewelling units in the back and that eventual exit strategy would yield positive cashflow eventually.

Converting a detached garage into an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) in Houston, Texas, requires a permit from the city.

Real estate uses I've found include:talking real time with various contractors while on a site.informal chats between those in my real estate groupquickly asking someone in group to look up details on a property while you are driving by.There are many different accessories for it, like bluetooth PTT clips that you can easily use while driving.
