Rick, I am preparing to convert a detached garage in Anaheim into 2 bedroom ADU.  

Converting that money to cash flow is a problem for later.   

I converted it from Google Sheets and I can see a few formatting issues so sorry in advance.The columns with the red header are scenario 1, and the green header are for scenario 2.https://www.dropbox.com/s/gzvdujsmx9b5si9/Mortgage...I hope this finally puts the matter to rest.

To make room for grandma, they walled in the deck with heavy drapes and converted it into another bedroom.Sometime ago, she complained of leaks coming from the sewer pipe under the deck, so I had 2 maintenance men (brothers who help me with repairs and yardwork, who have been with me for 15 years, they're like family) to fix it twice.  

IDEALLY, we would like to find a property that has or is capable of being converted into a “mother in law”, “ADU”, “Casita”, or any other separate living quarters in which we could rent out the main portion to a tenant (short term or long term) and then use the separate space as our own for when we come and go with business.

Hi all,

This is a zoning question that I'm hoping maybe one person in this entire forum knows the answer or could at least point me in the right direction. I have purchased a townhouse in an RF1 zoned area and neig...

I think you have no choice but to convert to cash yourself.....no one is going to take the risk/hassle of converting afterward.

Something to consider is to convert the pre-tax funds/assets to Roth so you have tax free atm withdrawals at retirement.  

From our experience, every requester puts in the lowest possible rent ("<1200"), so they immediately take themself out of our match criteria, and we don't get a push notification.Since many of these potential leads actually have converted to renting with us, we check FF at least twice a day on the app and reach out to people looking for housing even if there is a gap in the match criteria.   

I would let my lease convert to month to month and take my time and find a MFR.
