Duplex can always add additional units via the ADU laws. 7) Related to the value added by the ADU, purchasing a property with an existing ADU is cheaper than buying a property and adding an ADU.

Thank you for the advice, I was leaning towards pine because it is cheaper. 

It has its advantages (most notably, it's cheaper).

Homes are much cheaper here.

Still cheaper than using a credit card tho.

I always go a little cheaper than rentometer so I can get more applicants and choose the better applicant.

The area seems it may be on the cheaper side of the close surrounding areas while at the same time holding the potential of having good cash flow.

Maybe do a tandem approach and depending on your location and price points etc.Nurses mostly get a daily stipend to spend on housing [some have the employing agency pay for the housing] what I found is that even though on average nurses get up to about $180 per day in daily rental stipend - they do not seek out to spend that much and look for cheaper housing - the kicker is it seems that they get to keep the difference of what they do not spend on rent and pocket the difference.So I put my lisitings on Airbnb sometimes as weekly, mostly on as 30 day rental [to keep in compliance with various city, HOA and local laws.So lots of different strategies to go and to keep your options open for all sorts of travelers  that we can not even think of, so expand your criteria.

I don't think it is cheaper than what you have. 

I work with the same people enough on multiple projects that I can complete a project much cheaper than the GC bids I receive.
