In 2017, we were able to get into a property with a MIL suite that we rehabbed and have transformed into our dream home,and also remodeled an unfinished cottage on site as well into short term vacation rental and then long term rental property after Covid in 2020.

My first is 2 units - main house and cottage on 10 acres 5 miles from downtown Grass Valley - which I originally purchased as a 2nd home, $650K back in 2004.  

It’s a raised cottage with a finished space underneath.

Mainly German Style, cottage brick homes.
