The idea behind allowing for an ADU is to alleviate the rising cost of housing and or to offset the expense of health care for aging population.

The city has seen some serious investment from the city along with investment from Promedica, our healthcare provider, which provides thousands of jobs to locals in the area.Along with this, a new company is moving into the area and will be implementing a $400M facility: Peloton.

I like that the city is build on a lot of recession resistant industries (healthcare, municipal, higher education) and has shown plenty of steady economic/population growth. 

We both work in the healthcare industry as it is too, which is helpful.  

I just made a career transition from healthcare to realtor.

Secondly, the area has a diverse economy with strong job growth in industries such as healthcare, education, and financial services.

My whole portfolio is here and following a similar progression of moving up.Purchase: $80k-$130kRent: $1200-$1500ROI: 10-14%Cash flow: $250-$350/doorAppreciation: Double digit (for past 10 years, will gladly send data)Location: C, B- (suburbs and certain markets)We have over a dozen Fortune 500 companies just in Metro Detroit with huge Healthcare, Auto, mortgage, Amazon fulfillment, and more jobs.The bad reputation comes from OOS investors wanting $20k D market properties.

However - there is a ton that goes into this analysis including the possibility of affecting a step up in basis at death, overall estate value & current estate plan (trusts, wills etc), future health care planning & laws around asset transfers etc.Given the inherent complexity to this, I'd recommend reaching out to several estate planners w/ a focus in real estate. 

They specialize in travel healthcare workers and has now expanded beyond.

Tampa has a growing economy with major industries including healthcare, finance, and tourism.
