We rent to plenty of S8 applicants; I've always believed the standard of care they exude is as high if not higher than "market" applicants because they'll get kicked out of the program if they don't.

Do you have anyone experienced in AirBNB/SRT to learn from and help you analyze?

203K and Homestyle can be great ways to finance in the cost of improvements.

And if you want to release her from the lease I’d just do it.

With the new commission rules you can stay flexible with an offer of buyer agent commission, rather than having to commit to a certain percentage going to the buyer agent upfront.

Feel free to reach out—I’d be happy to assist!

I don't think you are going to be able to get insurance for two separate living units in a single-family when they are both illegal and likely do not have the correct egress windows (basement) for fire safety which could subject you to huge liability if something happens to either party.
