This is the golden question that your own due diligence will have to answer - not sure any investor is going to give away exactly where they are investing as this would cause more competition haha.3.Zillow doesn't bring me any units, my realtor also doesn't have knowledge on multi family units, what are my other resources you would recommend?

Now, maybe the location is not the best, you will have to do your due diligence, but follow my train of thought on this one. @ $700k with 5% down : you would need $35k : why $700k if this is listed for $600k Bc as an example: you could do a construction loan where you buy the home for $600k and use $100k for the ADU.

Buyer of note does not do proper due diligence and finds they need something resigned from an owner of the note down the line and think the person they bought it from needs to get that document for them.3.
