That is assuming you pay the money back in the same year.Prior to real estate my 401K was my golden goose and I would never consider touching it but now my views have changed. 

@Collin Luckett what your touching on for changing of buyer during pending is not a viable direction. 

I’ve included a photo for reference of the kitchen which is the main attraction of the Mass home.Now I am looking to pursue REI long-term and am looking for tips on how those more experienced in the field have operationalized and scaled the property selection process.Our thinking for this first official investment is to either acquire a duplex/triplex and add our touch or acquire a single family where an ADU can be added.

Quote from @Joseph Leahy: @Aaron Letzeiser I’ve been in touch with one of your agents for a quote for Landlord insurance.

Looking forward to connecting, will definitely touch base. 

I personally don't charge for small holes and touch-ups unless they are grossly excessive, but I would charge for removing the tape/adhesive.

I can get you in touch with a great finance/insurance broker local to Houston if you want to PM me! 

I will not touch anything in FL, for now.

And as investors we should know this, but always anticipate higher costs and longer waits.EXAMPLE Breakdown of Costs:Plan Purchase: $1,500Permitting Fees: $2,500-7,500Site Preparation (grading, utilities, foundation): $20,000–$30,000ADUs require separate utility connections for water, electricity, and sewer but you can tap into existing utilities at the primary houseIn Raleigh you CANNOT split lots fee simple, so setting up completely separate utilities would not allow you to section off the ADU as of nowYour ADU must be on a permanent foundation (no wheels, no ability to move the structure)Construction (labor and materials): $100,000–$150,000Low-grade: $150–$180/sq ft averageMid-grade: $180–$220/sq ft averageHigh-end: $220–$250/sq ft averageLandscaping/Finishing Touches: $5,000Total Estimated Cost: $125,000–$200,000You could easily spend $200k+ with super end high finishes, custom designs, complicated sitework, adding a second story or more sqft, etc.

Did @Andrew Lanoie ever get in touch with you and send out the Q2 distribution?
