Let the agent know that while you’re interested, the property’s condition and local comps don’t justify the asking price.Taking a warm, conversational approach can make negotiations smoother and improve your chances of getting the deal.

On the rental agreement it should clearly state that only those listed on the lease are allowed to live in the property. 

I have had many conversations with her friends about the differences in our markets and  have recognized for a while now that there may be some mutually beneficial opportunities to work with Canadian investor specifically.

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)?

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 not, do you own the primary home you're living in now? 

Renovated it, lived in it for 2 years then moved on.

@Kaaren Hall after seeing your post i called them right away, their fees are extremely high for an HSA that for the most part most people don't have a lot of money in.I max my HSA every year, but if you have a self only plan you can only put about 4k /yr  and if you have some medical bills it's less.they are also very restrictive on taking money out, and no CC to pay the doctor. prior to speaking with them I was extremely excited to see this opportunity you suggested,  but after my conversation I'm no longer...I will look for other options now that I see there may be some, so thanks so much for bringing it up.
