I have been deliberating on this and I just don't know if I should:a) Hold on to the cash/equity and make the payments until...b) Buy a property in Oklahoma City, strong market but easier/less expensive to get into and try to generate enough return to actualize the ADU project.c) Take out a loan to cover the cost of the ADU, roll the existing loan into it and build the damn ADU!

Our best tenants have always been the deliberate ones - schedule well ahead of time, know exactly what they are looking for, etc. 

The language is deliberately convoluted and tedious and to get the most specific information about fees I was told point blank that I had to call the 401k company. 

My main point in this post is to show that a slow and deliberate, nothing fancy approach can be effective.

Well they weren’t exactly deliberate real estate deals for as far as I am aware.

What you have here is two separate tenants, at their own expense, installing washers and dryers.That is a pretty damn strong market signal that units of the sort they are renting should include a washer and dryer.Install a coin-op in a place where the market is signaling a demand for in-unit washer/dryers, and you are deliberately bringing your property down-market.That is not the direction most landlords typically want to move.

Had we simply moved deliberately, we would have saved ourselves aggravation and time.

We deliberately look for non-all inclusive resorts. 

Being that's a broad universal deal breaker here are things that turn me off:Negative cash flowDeed restrictionsTitle issuesPoolsStric HOAs or HOAs that are apparently not enforcing CCRsLow income with high crimeNeighborhood with poor appreciation historyFlood zoneMultiple offers or a property deliberately priced low to incite a bidding warThere's more but those are some main ones

I've really tried to be deliberate and thoughtful about my goals and setting realistic, but ambitious goals for my future.
