Last year I re-read Rich Dad Poor Dad, and I've immersed myself in learning more about real estate investing ever since. 

What is the point of a contract if you can just change your mind and walk away? 

I have changed my rental strategy to Co-Living (rent by the room).

Hmm, I really love this question & whole concept. 

If you want to find out if someone really knows what they're doing, ask if they've ever handled an insurance claim on a sub-to (I've had many and was always able to cash the check).

@Kash Tacke I'm a big fan of ADU's in general especially here in the mid west, yes you could potentially be on the front of the wave, but housing density is the solution to the affordability issue, anytime you are investing with affordability in mind is a great strategy to me, and sound like there are some incentives or at least supporting winds form the local city, that in itself seems like it would be worth at least approaching an architect or contractor to bid up some plans or concepts to take tot he city.  

In the event of an acquisition your "Checkbook Control" set up would not change.

Recently a friend recommended I looked into BiggerPockets as I was telling them about my "concept of a plan" and maybe he could also notice my hesitation.

This book introduced me to financial concepts and made me look at money and investing in a completely different way.

I am going to have to have my realtor make an addendum to the lease. the tenant has been paying for utilities up until this point. has anyone ever been through this?
