I want to provide a safe, structured living environment for individuals transitioning out of recovery or other challenging situations.I’m new to this process and was hoping for advice on the following:How to navigate zoning laws and permits in Montgomery for this type of setup.Licensing requirements for sober living or group homes.Strategies for finding residents or partnering with local organizations.Financial and operational tips for managing this type of property.I’ve heard zoning can be tricky and want to ensure I comply with all legal and safety requirements.

Ideally, you'd want closer to $40k-$50k to feel truly comfortable and have a safety net for your first investment property.

Do nothing...the tenant isn't renting that area and has no right to dictate how you use it as long as it poses no security/safety risk to them. 

If they find something I didn’t know about and they couldn’t have, or safety related then I’ll consider/cover some of it.

That’s why I invested in rentals—to have a safety net.I'm not exactly sure where you're at, but if your current situation is causing frustration or stress, there’s no shame in selling a property to free up capital.

If a bank sells a note to Dion at 87K, they know he's in the business of selling, he sells for 95K to someone else, that is an arm's length transaction, the borrower had nothing to do with it.

If you do have an entity, treat is like your ex - stay as far away from it personally, do not mix funds and operate it at arms length. 

And who lack experience, sophistication and are unaware of the dangers of Subject To for the seller, is like handing out firearms and bullets with no safety training.
