After  3.5 years we have permits for a 17 unit redevelopment project.We had hopes that we would break ground within a year of buying the property....that fell by the wayside for 2 reasons:1) we had worked with the city to increase density through an affordable housing scheme that did not go as planned.

I did not want to incur the cost but I figured...that maybe....just maybe....sometime in the near future us ADU home owners may be able to rent both units....like a duplex.At that point it will be worth it to let the tenets be responsible for their own bills.Not saying that other ways are bad...they are actually very cost effective if you are living there...but what about as you scale your business and move onto other properties.This of course if your city will allow you to rent both units...the city I am in is tough but things can change as more pressure is being put on affordable housing.Once again...not saying any way is right or wrong...I just did it this way for the reason I just mentioned.Thank you....

It MAY be fraudulent to offer to purchase a property you can’t afford to buy, but that’s a hard one to prove.  

Hey Stuart, the mid-market is a pretty hot and affordable.

Overall, it's pretty affordable too. 

Hemlane.com is a management software I use, very effective and affordable.

The lender will need to be able to prove on paper that you can afford all those mortgages with your job income and the rental income that you have.

It's still an affordable market; I would just be cautious about which turn-key provider you choose.Deborah

If I stopped the example here, most would say the portfolio of $100k homes is the better investment.Next, let's assume you decide to sell the Market B homes in year 3 because you are frustrated with the cap ex and management of the tenants in the lower tier houses because you are not achieving the expected cash flow.
