After reviewing their apps, you can sort of tell who won’t ever be able to qualify or afford to buy a house.

I have only heard of these programs for owner occupied properties, VA home buyers, FHA & first time home buyer programs and that sort of thing.

Of course, it's going to be hard to get your first customer, but if you make 100-200 phone calls, you'll get one.I'm currently furnishing a place to get market ready and it's the worst.

TIA, SandyMost of these are a huge disservice to sellers, as the listing agents don't do much if anything, don't market it, have the worst photos, weakest mls marketing verbiage, slowest response time to requests, etc. 

That's why ADUs aren't the worst investment in LA, but the best.

I’d look into some sort of way to make additional income.

I would calculate worst-case scenarios. 

Buy or inherit and hold all their lives while working the properties for income.I've seen teachers, firemen, software engineers and all sorts of people utilize both strategies successfully.

This is worst than Florida.

The worst part of being a housing provider for sure.
