These facilities often have stable and predictable income streams due to consistent demand, making them attractive investments.Additionally, the trade-off between the speed of closing a deal and the long-term financial implications is crucial.

Flexibility for Future Moves: When I decided to move out later, I can continue renting both units, creating a consistent income stream even after transitioning to a new home.

This can be a very expensive mistake if you don't make the phone call to check.I am not going to choose sides or define multi-family because the original post didn't ask that and also because the answer will vary from one town to the next.I encourage any current or future readers of this stream to look at the original post then follow the advice I have given and will repeat one more time - if you don't know 100% for sure if your intended use is allowed whether by change in use or grandfather status, then call the LOCAL code enforcement office, explain to them your specific situation as well as your intended use, and let THEM advise you.Disclaimer - this is not to be considered legal advice, but I am beating my head against the wall explaining it because it is an elementary lesson in real estate.Best of luck to all.
