Hi all, I am in the Triangle Area for the next month and would love to connect with other investors, especially other women investors (but not only).

A friend of mine just took a vacation there and was telling me that her building had two separate check-in desks at the entrance; one for "airbnb" rentals and one for the complex rentals.This seems encouraging that they're embracing or at least accepting the self-manage model.Any thoughts you have to add on any of this are welcome.Thanks!

In E Oakland, it's OK to embrace the 80/20 rule..

Main reason women tend to be more "careful" when partying.

The majority of investors that I've spoken to about this see it as a negative, but I do think that those who are willing to embrace the changes will reap some of the benefits that you touched on in your OP.  

It gives other businessmen and women the opportunity to buy out these troubled businesses at a discount, it allows for people to get good real estate deals, etc etc.

The best resources for this question are going to be in regions where the ADU has been embraced as an innovative way to create more places for people to live: the Pacific Northwest, specifically Portland, are the key players here.California is not too far behind because the state has made it much easier to permit an ADU through laws, including the latest in early 2020.The basic answer to the question is a permitted ADU should add 20-30% to the value of your property.

Embrace the learning curve, keep connecting with others, and don't hesitate to ask questions.

Thanks In few years having 8-10 properties paid off ( now I have 2 fully paid off and 3rd one coming up) I can care less about 401k and their monthly checks.My family can enjoy thousands of dollars coming every month from rent long after I am gone.I like to be in charge of my wealth all the time and no middle man with rules and regulations is needed.Waiting until I am 62-65 to get checks ,especially for a man ( we tend to live  shorter than women ) is pure garbage.

She worked hard for us so we could have a better life - and managed to do all that in an age ('60s-70's-80's) when women were still considered second class citizens . .
