Generally speaking, I would not recommend STR in West Sacramento, however, we'll see if that changes with the A's coming to town :)

Many investors start their journey by diving into individual distressed property deals, but if you want to grow into a high-volume operation, it’s essential to change your mindset, strategy, and execution.

I've done and been a part of many Chicago zoning changes...they take a very long time and a lot of upfront money...unless you are planning to add multiple units and do a full renovation, the ROI is probably not there.

FYI I would change the title as I read this and i thought you wanted to create an app for real estate.

I know that something has to change and I want to explore purchasing real estate.

getting tighter but things may be changing soon depending on what the new prez does.  

Lending laws change frequently, and we receive emails from Lightning Docs throughout the year explaining their updates to the documents we use here in CA.

.  --- From the zoning code it says, an RM-2 zoned lot can have "1 unit per 2,500 sf. of lot area"If you don't meet that lot size requirement you'll need to make a request for a variance, then post notice about the desired change in front of the building.

I recently came across 1 acre asking for 314k in a very good residential and growing location, so the current owner has added 4 manufactured homes with 4 electrical meters, 4 septic tanks and only 1 water meter for all 4 homes, the homes are sitting on partial slab and partial pier & beam, he also added 2 storage sheds approx. 380sqft with the intention to make them ADUs they are still only the shell so I would have to get those ready to live in, so currently the 4 manufactured homes are being rented and bringing in 2800k a month, 3 of the homes are needing some TLC which could increment rents and possibly get me at 3600k a month, also being a 1ac lot this still leaves about 12,000sqft of raw land where you could build etc.So that is on the good side now the things I did not like so much, the lay out is poorly executed to where it makes it looked crammed up and not professional but it could be fixed.Another is that in reality there is only 4 livable units so that qualifies under a conventional loan but since they're are 6 units on the property the banks are wanting to take it as a commercial so we would have to move out the 2 storage sheds out in order to close as conventional.Another concern, technically you are only allowed to have one manufactured house or single wide in your property according to what I know but I know it could change according to zoning which I will investigate, so my question is has all this been accounted for and if so how can I verify it so it wont leave me in a bind further down the road, I currently asked my agent for the appraisal of the property to see if that might verify.Any recommendations?

The reasons cited for the market not following suit this time are concerns that increasing GDP, especially in Q4 of 2024, and policy changes such as tariffs could lead to a resurgence of inflation and thus a change in the Fed’s projections, with there being 150bps of variance between certain Fed members projections (Source).
