Can you throw out names for Missouri resources they have worked with before on investor friendly realtors, tax experts, and investor friendly banks? 

As @Patrick Drury mentioned- the West Side does not have any POS areas (besides Lakewood, but it's only needed for previously non-owner occupied/rental properties) Something else to consider in Cleveland proper is Lead Safe Testing ..

Now if it was definitely a single unit and only she could do it and it was properly labled it would be on her.

But they charge $4000 dollars for any form of mentorship or being a place of resource, which eats into my savings for this endeavor. 

Most inspectors will know that properties only need to meet whatever the code was when they were built, not current code and they usually explain that properly IME.

I do have one question - I have a partner and we are looking into getting a properly together.

For me they've been a great source of ideas, resources, energy, and comradery.

It sounds like an incredible resource, for $200 having a fully designed materials and fixtures schedule to pair with a labor only GC or a GC that can work well with a prescriptive materials schedule. https://ivoryhome.co/predesigned-packages/Just curious how other people’s experience has been.

You might find that installing a mini-split system, properly insulating, and ensuring the finishes match the main home’s quality will make a difference in how the appraiser views it.

I have a lot of respect for Marco as I find him to be extremely thoughtful, intelligent and a tremendous resource for Real Estate Investing and investing in general.
