I advertise via Sabbatical Homes and Harvard Off-Campus Housing and insist my leases begin on Sep 1, Jan 1 or Jun 1 and end on Dec 31, May 31 or Aug 31. 

@Pat Aboukhaled I would ULS (unit lot segment) the primary house and include a clause in the call option that would prevent them acquiring the DADU.

The other looks like it could lose about 40% of my original investment.In Vegas, the odds are always in the house's favor.  

That's a lot of work that needs to be done for your first house hack.

By 2030, we want to have grown a portfolio of over 100 units, created a property management company that manages an additional 100-200 units, and, finally (and most importantly), we will have established a non-profit that is focused on quality, affordable housing that specializes in providing housing and resources at/on the "services cliff" alongside financial counseling and first-time home buyer education in our target area.Our target area is the Springfield, MA and Hartford, CT areas with dreams to expand to Central Massachusetts (Worcester, MA), Southern New Hampshire (Nashua, NH), and Southern Connecticut (New Haven, CT).Would love to meet up with likeminded individuals in our area!

You minimize your risk of violating Fair Housing Law or compliance issues using an experienced property manager.3.

The rules and payment standards vary significantly from one area to another, so familiarizing yourself with the local housing authority's procedures is key.

There is a house near mine that is abandoned.

If the house is funky, it will be funky after you fix it up..
