Nashville is a very pocketed city when it comes to neighborhood quality especially in relation to crime rates, overall aesthetics or available amenities.

A higher quality property in a better neighborhood in a better city is gonna outperform any Cleveland property in the long run.

Love that idea and I'll feed that in to the Seller. sometimes you have to fight fire with fire and I’m not 100% familiar with New York laws, but I’m pretty sure they have squatters rights therefore, the other squatter wouldn’t be able to do a thing about it.

I have a salitle  office over on that side of town and the city is getting ready to dump alot of money into the area of town.The Decade before it A maybe  in real time is over five under 8.There so much development that is getting ready to take place in that area that is taking place.

Make sure your land is zoned for the type of structure you're wanting to build by calling the city/county planning and permits office. 

Hi Kailas - Yes, you can typically rent out the main house and the ADU to separate tenants on separate leases (so long as you're compliant with city regulations/restrictions).

This will provide protection both against the city as well as provide ability for you to pursue eviction if needed. if you rent an illegal unit and the tenant doesn't pay you have no grounds for eviction.

something like that:https://www.biggerpockets.com/... there is a thread like that usually for each city ?

@Alethia Hines I don't have any direct experience, but one person I know that did have success in this sector had made great connections with city county folks.

He does a good job laying out the pros/cons and issues he's had with the city.
