I was just wondering whether, on first blush, you guys saw any major red flags with this plan - i.e. things that you learned in the process of doing your own ADU. 

I’m asking the wonderful folk on BP because my “mentor” is very tight lipped.

Don't fall for their lip service, remember "actions speak louder than words"!

G fail to refute or deny this statement in any fashion.I then later watched this same person move his lips in what appeared to me to be in perfect synch with the following words: "I'm, even though I only have a high-school degree, I'm, ahh, I AM a professional student."

After you use the router to make the opening in the plywood, what do you do about the inside lip of the cabinet bases?

As I've found out yet again, some can talk the talk, but that's where their (lip) service ends...

At 1st blush I'd love to find exactly this opportunity.

Some real estate agents are capable of keeping both of these objectives in mind, others will just give it lip service.

Using the bottom of your ARV if you can get it for a little under list (Like $5K) it works well with the 70% rule so it would be pretty good at first blush.

But as with most tax laws, what seems simple on first blush normally isn't simple at all.Exceptions for 401(k) and 403(b) plan loansThe law says that interest paid on a loan secured by your account balance is nondeductible if any of the account balance used to secure the loan is attributable to elective deferrals that you made.
