Now the biggest impactor is often the least spoken on which is energy storage.

What city in Texas are you located?

@Kent FordI agree with @Ryan Konen regarding areas like San Antonio’s outskirts, parts of Fort Worth, and growing cities like Tyler and Lubbock, which are becoming popular due to relative affordability and job growth.We will see an interest in smaller metro areas where prices are more accessible and a surge in new construction aimed at entry-level buyers.

You cannot beat the power of an ADU for peace of mind, leveraging your home to pay less monthly and reduce your expenses and give you the experience and confidence of doing constriction, getting permits and working with the city and managing a very easy rental.

My thought would be, if the city is okay with letting owners doing padsplit, why not just letting them rezone the property to multifamilies and build a multifamily apartment, which is a more legitimate solution. 2.

Fun fact, we have the lowest unemployment rate in ant top 25 major city.

I did find some good data on city-data.com that I had forgotten about.

Definitely recommend reaching out to the city first to confirm what permitting would be needed for added square footage.

Some use them as rentals.the biggest reason for doing things this way is a traditional bank won’t loan on  property that won’t appraise at their desired price.

After  3.5 years we have permits for a 17 unit redevelopment project.We had hopes that we would break ground within a year of buying the property....that fell by the wayside for 2 reasons:1) we had worked with the city to increase density through an affordable housing scheme that did not go as planned.
