AB 2424 (Schiavo) takes effect on January 1 2025.

Plan: With the ADU income, your effective housing cost could drop below 30% of your income.

A buddy of mine invested early in that area, and let's just say he's not regretting it.From what I've heard, these massive projects tend to create ripple effects in the surrounding neighborhoods.

I’d love to get creative with marketing without spending a ton, whether through social media, local community groups, or any other cost-effective avenues.

Not 100% effective but helps

I just got an email that my pro membership auto-renewed today and went to the website to cancel, only to have the cancellation effective 8/19/2025. 

So, this point is effectively moot.

If your goal for house hacking is not to cashflow immediately it may make sense if you're paying a significantly less amount in mortgage and expenses on your house hack because the other side is effectively helping pay that amount.

It's subconscious to me on the internet when it's only a blue head that the person could be fake.I think the forums would be much more effective if verification was required just for this reason.

Getting less every month is still generally more cost effective than dealing with a tenant that stops paying or causes damages to the property.However, if you do decide to change your selection criteria and you are worried about fair housing, the main thing is documentation.
