I've not yet invested in my first property, but I plan to purchase my first one by the end of 2023.

.: I just hired an architect to design and plans submit for ADU in my 8 multi unit to use the tuck under parking.Some people say do not try to be the general contractor as it will take way more time, costly mistakes and will be nearly impossible to manage with current work. best to hire a company that will do it all and cost about $250 per square foot.

Unless you revise your plan and ensure that your personal use is under 10% of the rental use.

While the location is great, parking is an issue, and can really only accommodate about 4 - 5 cars total at time reasonably. 

is why they want a payment plan.. personally I would take them up on it. 

My plan is to live in one of the units while renting out the others.

Yes we definitely encourage everyone to STICK TO THE PLAN when renovating!

It sounds like you might be in the situation I'm in: buying a vacation home that I plan to use as a STR when I'm not using it so that other people can help pay my mortgage.

There were platinum and non-platinum plans.
