I will add we took out a loan to buy the home for 20k along with extra cash to put into our home to make a "home office" out of the attached garage we never used except for storage so we added even more value to our 156k purchase.

What is the zoning/permit terminology for just a guest house whose utilities are completely attached to the main house. 

I am converting my garage (attached to my main home) into an ADU in California, and I will rent out the unit when complete.

I too am in FL albeit the west panhandle, and am preparing to make my first investment deal so kudos for asking a great question!

. - Going further out Brentwood and Oakley have appreciated quite a bit and have pretty good schools- Something with potential to add value: ADU attached to the main house or separately in the backyard in the future to get additional rent.

I urge everyone to review and get involved quickly as the timeline is very short to provide feedback.I have attached the supporting documents for everyone's review.

@Derek Morrison I list “typical qualifications” in my rental listing then have a specific email response to inquiries that again lists my “typical qualifications,” along with an attached application form, that if they meet those, they can request appt x day for 20-minute time slot, and I only accept applications after meeting them at the appointment.

It is effective Aug. 1, 2024.This ordinance is referred to as the Source of Income Discrimination Ban Ordinance" - which is identified in File #231019 and amends sections of Chapter 38 (Civil Rights) and Chapter 34 (Health and Sanitation) in the Missouri Revised Statutes for the purpose of classifying source of income as a protected trait in regard to housing discrimination.Here are some key takeaways from the attached ordinance:This ordinance bans discrimination against tenants based solely on:Source of income from an occupation, including gig work or paying rent in cash Use of public programs like Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers, disability checks, or social security Poor credit score Prior evictions and alleged damages older than 12 months (less than 12 months can be a basis for denial) Prior convictions or arrests (sexual and violent crimes are excepted, a landlord can still deny based on these convictions)The ordinance also requires the city to proactively scan for rental ads using discriminatory language like "no Section 8" or "no past evictions".Landlords who are found to be in violation of the ordinance with respect to source of income can be fined up to $1,000 per incident.

Do you guys also attach receipts of repairs and items to replace when you return the deposit to move-out tenants?

I will attach a link to the local median rent for a 1-br, and I believe, even if he pays for his own utility (which everything are free, except for internet at this moment), he is still below $200 market.
