No emotions just business.

Also, I was thinking about it and I think if you were going to make shared amenities (like fire pit) you probably would be very successful doing that strategy I mentioned for larger listings.For big dates I would have one listing that is both the primary and ADU that sleeps 12+, or whatever the number is, and then you can have the ADU and primary again as separate listings for the rest of time. 

Best option would be to separately meter the property 2.

You do not need separate checking accounts for each property if the ownership is the same.

.: In a prior post from about 2 months ago, Kerry Malarkey and Nathan Gesner mentioned a small landlord is exempt from FHA requirements requiring the acceptance of emotional support & assistance animals if one of the following is true:"Owner-occupied buildings Properties with four units or fewer that are owned and lived in by the ownerSingle-family homes Homes that are sold or rented without a broker by the owner, as long as the owner doesn't own more than three at once" (Quote from Nathan's reply))https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/52/topics/1219359-pitbu...Given this, if a landlord does qualify for the exemption, what exactly does this mean? 

You can still build two separate homes on the same lot, offering investment flexibility.The streamlined approval process is a huge advantage, cutting out the red tape of lengthy public hearings.

@Jon Ankenbauer you won't be able to keep the land separate from any future construction loan.

The Seller has an emotional attachment to the house.

House hacks are fairly straightforward regardless if the units are separately metered.

Paul has started at least 3 separate threads in the past few days announcing to the world the success he's having with section 8 rentals and repeatedly reminds us he doesn't have a clue how to calculate the true operational costs associated with these properties.
