Hello - I'm new to Bigger Pockets, excited to get my real estate investment journey going.I own a Condo in Chicago with a friend of mine (split 50/50), which I've lived in for about 5 years.

Once you take over a property as an owner occupant, if it is a single family or condo you can live in it for 1 year and that automatically exempts your unit from rent control.

I don't know your living situation but if your paying x,xxx for rent or a mortgage and instead by living in one side and renting out the other you will be paying y,yyy instead and y is less then x that's great, especially if you can rent out your primary residence and make income there too. 

Please see the rough numbers below :Tear down house price 350k,Construction cost 165 sqft * 2 build=627k too much for the land unless your exit is 3 million. don't reinvent the wheel. no single family home builder is paying 300k for land. that's miami florida prices where I live. we buy land 50k and under in Columbus Ohio. keep land at less than 10% of after built value.
