@Ryan KonenThat is a significant amount of leverage and can make it very challenging to make $ on.

I agree it would probably look great having a loft.

(Given that my new primary residence also has the equity from first residence HELOC)In other words, when your original primary residence becomes a rental, can you still do a HELOC?

You have a very good balanced approach to getting started and it's great you are prepping for the future.

@Sequoiah BriseñoYes, but it is too late since you already paid them. 90% of them will refuse to share their tax IDs with you.

The area is a mix of established homes and updated properties, making it a prime spot for a fix-and-flip.

While residential development is generally restricted in these areas, there are specific circumstances under which it may be permitted:Special Mixed-Use Districts (MX): In certain M1-2 zones, residential use is allowed when paired with a residential district under the MX designation.

Do you deal with squatters?

Hi @Julie Philpott it depends where you are in Franklinton to feel the full effects of those new developments.

@Gary R UrenIf the property is zoned for only one home you most likely will not be able to do thisPossibly it could be 123 main st unit a vs b but that is a post office issue and good luck dealing with the post office on this issueI would talk to them and put to mailboxes in the front and see if they can separate it by A and B unit
