I have the skills to work with the city officials and understand all the Tiny Home Codes.

Subchapter K is an entire area of the tax code. 

As U.S. citizens residing in Europe, we are required by the local tax code to hold the property in our personal name.

It’s likely the GC will subcontract the concrete work to a specialist while they focus on managing the permitting process and ensuring everything is done to code—especially if there are ADA requirements involved for the ramp.Let me know if you need help navigating the process or any tips for working with contractors.

@Lillian Pintaro,Birmingham’s a lucrative market—it’s been my stomping ground for nearly 20 years, and you can find some excellent deals if you know what you’re after and dive deep by zip code, neighborhood, and city block.For what it’s worth, we manage 2,000+ units (many for out-of-state investors) mostly in the north and west part of town—so think suburbs outside the city limits like Graysville (35073), Adamsville (35005), Mount Olive (35117), Center Point (35215), and the like.Since you’re also open to the surrounding areas, places like Odenville (to the east) and Tuscaloosa (to the southwest) could be worth checking out.

Check out this table: https://www.municode.com/library/ca/oakland/codes/...This is what you're looking for: https://www.screencast.com/t/Xkyp3OZWkI Oakland, for a building with 3 units or more you need to have a lot sized at 7,500 sq ft.  --- From the zoning code it says, an RM-2 zoned lot can have "1 unit per 2,500 sf. of lot area"If you don't meet that lot size requirement you'll need to make a request for a variance, then post notice about the desired change in front of the building.

@Michael Tempel Reventure App has a cap rate at a zip code level based on residential.

What zip code is this property in and how many Bedrooms?

You need this property because of the tax code --its one of the categories where a taxpayer can meaningful reduce tax liability.

Plus you will then possibly be forced to comply with local building codes.
