This is the difference between the loan amount and the purchase price. 

It is entirely different than a residential house. 

There is also a ton of different financing strategies available other than your conventional mortgages.

However; the STR loophole and REPS are completely different things. 

I'd price out different layouts and find someone like an architect who specializes in this. 

It can be time-consuming and challenging if you try to do everything on your own, so partnering with a trusted team can make all the difference.

Or would you just use the cash flow from your old unit to make up difference?

And go to different services to find "Rent" (like the bigerpockets rent tool, or "rentometer") and property taxes? 

I've been studying different real estate strategies and would love to understand more about how the permitting process is evolving in that area.Did the realtor mention any specific changes in local ordinances, or was it more of a general observation based on market trends?

Since you have just closed on your first property through RTR can you tell me, were there any differences in the numbers that RTR provides versus the actual?
