Everyone has to live somewhere.

Quote from @Jemini Leckie: Hello, I am trying to understand the Orem, city code to determine if I am allowed to rent my basement ADU that I currently live in two a couple cousins and their friend.

I recently purchased my first duplex in Peoria, AZ in September and I am using it as a house hack where I rent out one side and live in the other.

It frees you up to focus on living your life and acquiring more property.

We live just outside of city limits and therefore Coconino county. 

My Real Estate plan is slow and long, I don't plan to live on the income so it may take me a few years to justify a $2k expense for a conversation or for a CPA to handle my returns.

My airbnb posting just went live yesterday. 

Lived in The Woodlands for almost 19 years now and been investing up in this area for the last 9.

@Matthew Drouin I haven't even dreamed of doing what I'm talking about but research the subject I've been brought to various YouTube video offer case studies & case analysis which would have me to believe deals can be done by lone individuals without any capital of their own being spent.

If you're going to live in it for a bit and fix it up you can adjust accordingly.
