I was just on their website looking at the permit process:CityofSac-STR PermitLooks like 90 days max until you get a conditional use permit but still reading as it seems a little unclear:A short-term vacation rental may operate from a location that is not the operator's primary residence for a total of 90 days in a calendar year.

In markets where affordability and cash flow are tough, focusing on stable, long-term rental markets with strong resident demand can make all the difference.It’s completely understandable to feel cautious after missing opportunities in the past, but real estate has always been about timing and strategy.

Thanks to everything I’ve learned from the podcasts, books, and this community, my wife and I currently own:A triplex in MaineA single-family rental in San AntonioA single-family primary residence in Las Cruces, NM, which will become a rental when we move in a few monthsFor context, I'm an active-duty Army officer with about 12 years left until retirement, and my wife works for a university in Boston.

I don't know your living situation but if your paying x,xxx for rent or a mortgage and instead by living in one side and renting out the other you will be paying y,yyy instead and y is less then x that's great, especially if you can rent out your primary residence and make income there too. 

When I return to the country after my Au Pair contract ends, I hope to live in the property as my primary residence and house-hack as well.I understand that investing remotely makes things more challenging, but I am also ready to be uncomfortable and challenge myself in this journey as I know it is 100% possible.

Are you/your partner(s) foreign nationals or non-permanent resident aliens?

Both strategies are great and have their pros and consOne of the biggest wealth building tools in real estate is the ability to purchase a property as a primary residence and put less then 20% down.

The property either has to be zoned a commercialZoning or - you have to own both HPR parcels and have one be a primary residence .

We work with lots of clients from both coasts, but especially from CA, helping them find investment properties with residents in place under 2 year leases from day 1!

@Leeling ChewAbsolutely, you should background check every adult (18 or older) who will reside in the property.
