Welfare recipients are a special class and have special privileges eg: income qualifications. 

Hi all-my mom wants to dedicate her time to real estate full time. Came across the real estate professional status which could help her in convincing her to let go of her w2 (with tax savings). Here is her current sit...

Maybe you can be the deal-finder/house-hacker and they can be the money/qualification side. 

(Fannie-Freddie just started allowing projected income from ADUs to be counted toward qualification this year.)Just in general, though, any kind of rent appraisal I see here in Colorado -- be it for short-term rentals/Airbnb or for LTR -- are woefully low. 

Be aware that not all of the companies have the qualifications to perform these studies.

Also the cashout refi is a no income low doc loan that looks to the DSCR ratio of the building for qualification along with my credit score.

I would see how your PM company is following up with leads and what their qualification restrictions are for the property.

It can even take short-term rental income as a basis for qualification.

I'd suggest you define your qualification criteria and publish it in your ad and follow HUD screening best practices from there. 

If the projected tax savings outweigh the cost of the study within a reasonable timeframe, it may be worth pursuing.Given your qualifications and involvement in the property, you likely have a good understanding of its components and renovation costs, which can facilitate the cost segregation process.
