I've noticed some deals that include an ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit) and would like to know if these are popular in the area.

I am looking into them as accessory dwelling units(ADU)

HomeGoods also had a ton of great pieces on offer when I was furnishing my Airbnb - lamps, mirrors, side tables, chairs, stools, kitchen and bathroom accessories, throw pillows, blankets, etc.I am very much NOT a fan of Ikea furniture - most of it is recognizable (not in a good way), looks and feels cheap, and also doesn't hold up well at all over time, but certain pieces may have a time and place in your rentals (lighting, kitchen accessories, silverware/plates/bowls, etc).  

We spent four years in a duplex, maintaining it in our rental portfolio as we transitioned to another house hack residence with an additional accessory dwelling unit-type house next door.Navigating the intricacies of FHA loans in competitive real estate markets can be daunting, given stringent home requirements and more complex processes.

This means you can rent out a room in your place while you also stay there, you can rent out you entire place while on vacation, or you can rent out a basement or attic unit or an accessory dwelling unit (carriage house).
