I know the sentiment on this thread has been negative.

Hello, chiming in to echo similar sentiments above... 

Purchase price: $47,000 Cash invested: $7,000 Sale price: $85,000 This deal was sentimental as I grew up on this street and wholesaled a house across the road just 1.5 years ago.

Purchase price: $47,000 Cash invested: $7,000 Sale price: $85,000 This acquisition was especially sentimental to me because I have so many childhood memories on this street.

Because the legislature has passed protections for unpermitted units, a tenant should not be able to make any claim if it is a safe unpermitted unit.i agree with your sentiment on getting the ADU permitted, but not for the reasons you stated.  

The cash flow first, the appreciation to be the icing on the cake"  this sentiment is one of the worst I see on BP not sure who espouses this and why all these investors say the same  thing but that's really a recipe for disaster for the investors.If your leveraging RE to the max U know 20 to 25% down . 

I understand the sentiment, but I think it will have more negative effects.The problem is with enforcement.

I get the sentiment for sure.

I did not go to the best ever conference, but I heard from people who went the sentiment there was the same.

I've been listening to the BP podcast and reading up on RE investing for almost 6 months now and I feel ready to jump in, but I'm hesitant with the current sentiment about rates.I'm looking to invest both in and out-of-state here in Vermont.
