I would like to add 2 - 6 container living houses for short, mid or long term rental.

We have a house in an opportunity zone in Texas that we bought in 2015, lived in for 3 years, and then made a rental in 2018.   

If you're willing and able, I do recommend the "house hacking" strategy which is just a fancy name for buying a rental property and living in one of the units, because you'll get very favorable financing - an owner-occupied fixed-rate 30-year mortgage.I'd also say, analyze that property as if you won't live there and it's a pure rental, and make sure the property is still cash flow positive if there's a tenant in your unit because then you'll know if it's actually a good investment.And when you analyze it, include payment of a property manager in your #s because if you don't, and doing so would make it go cash flow negative, then you've just bought yourself a job because you literally can't step away from managing it without losing money.

I'm a landlord/realtor living in SC now.

Hey, I was taught pimps and ho's and gang bangers gotta live somewhere too.

You can also contact a local alcoholics anonymous or other organizations and let them know you have space available for anyone living sober.

I am a new member here and currently live in Tucson, AZ.

a lot of people will poo poo this, but I also live in a market where cash flow is low, property taxes are high and properties are expensive (which is a relative term).

What zoning code could I request a zoning variance or rezoning that would allow us to have the 2 livable units on parcel, one primary residence and one additional living unit (known currently as ADU)?

•I’d compare this deal to similar non-flood-zone properties—if the return is much better, it might be worth the extra risk.
