It really comes down to genuine human connection with others in the space or quantifiable things like underwriting of the deal.That said, the past few years have been challenging, with interest rates going up and commercial real estate coming down 20-30% from the highs.

I reached out to local zoning departments and one told me it would have to be re classified as a boarding home and or a multi family dwelling.

Now, if you’ve never done this type of development before, let me fill you in: you have to identify and (the jurisdiction will) relocate any human remains before proceeding with construction.

Hi @Adam HoekerI have my clients all on QuickBooks Online.We sync in their accounts to reduce human error in entries, and track each property's expenses and transactions to prepare for Tax time, this helps us to be prepared for 1099s as well, track Asset Basis and Depreciation, Mortgage Balances, and any Equity items.Since QBO is very common, it is easy to connect a Tax Accountant to this as well and have them pop in to grab reports they need to file. 

Currently, the CBC mandates a percentage of new dwelling units to be ADA compliant, but I wonder if these units are quickly filled or if there is excess in certain regions.

Some call the stock market a representation of human sentiment in real time, and I imagine the real estate market is not too different.

Humans are both greedy and lazy by natural design, and these types of deals appeal to both facets; you don't have to do anything and you get disproportionate riches.

We only have a tiny house as of now, but the infrastructure in place for a 5 bedroom dwelling.

Hi All -A bill was recently passed to allow Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) (<900 SF) to be built by-right in single-family zoning districts.https://www.mass.gov/info-details/accessory-dwelling-unitsMy understanding is that you could buy a single family home and build an ADU on it and rent it out. 

If you send snail mail, be sure to send certified so you have proof it arrived in human hands.Personally, it's baffling how so many people have poor communication skills when we have so many opportunities to communicate in today's world.
