@Ryan H I had a tenants ask me the same question.

If you do, then you can choose whatever you like the best.If you don't have a C wire, then your choices are very limited. 

Brew City FB Group is a great source for contractors.BTW here is a good story: the choice of lender matters more than most people think and not for the interest rate.

@Michael Ablan may the gods favor the choice of appraiser :)  

Ecuador is currently one of my top choices so If you could get back to me at your earliest convenience on the mortgage question that would be great! 

@Dimitri PaspalarisWithout providing advice on your fund choices, I would say the idea of allocating different portions of your discretionary income in a diversified manner is a great idea.The same way you would diversify a market investment portfolio or diversify a real estate investment portfolio, I always recommend people diversify their “wealth portfolio”.Wishing you all the best in achieving your financial goals!

Thanks for the reply, Ryan. 

That looks like 2 separate SFRs on the same lot to me, but i had a little trouble opening a couple of the photos.You should make sure that its zoned and permitted appropriately.It wouldn't be considered multifamily in my area, I believe.Your lender would have final say on the financing choices I'd think.
