@Sean Smith-come join us on 2/10 6pm, it's at a beach house in Ormond but offering Zoom too (but locally will have wine and cheese lol). 

@Kenneth Olsen There's a ton of HouseHackers here in WA - a combination of high-cost real estate and many cities (like Kirkland, Seattle, Tacoma, etc) having favorable accessory dwelling unit / backyard cottage laws makes this a great state for the strategy. 

I'm 39 and live in Yorktown Heights, NY where I own a house with an accessory cottage which I rent out.

He made  goat cheese in his living room on a wood stove, it had a dead St Bernard in it and trails through the house in between the empty canned food containers and this place looked like a hospital compared to the tranny house.

Might have been called"oak landing" and if memory serves the homes were around 400 sf and were super cute, cottage like, porches, minisplit ac's, 1 bedroom, 1 bath, little loft etc.

We were told if we do something like that our cottage would have to be up to code and some other stuff.

When I was growing up, we got peanut butter and cheese from the government, we got clothes from older cousins, and went outside and played instead of belonging a gym. 

Mine sat in front of the building and was basically it's own cottage, one-story, that butted up against the two split levels behind it, and the fourth unit was upstairs in back over the carport.He had been saving like crazy and had the big down payment the bank wanted, in order to finance the rest.  

Nothing else matters at this point, life doesn't end regardless of your decision.For myself I am a poor landlord, I only make a bit north of $100,000 per year so I need positive cash flow to buy groceries, pay for my cottage, buy my toys and take 2 or 3 Caribbean vacations a year.
