We've sent out a cohost request and most hosts are asking ~22%, which is higher than what ABB suggests - but seems to be in line with what traditional local prop management places charge.My question: Long term obviously it makes sense to learn to do this all myself and be self sufficient.   

There are a few that do not have any seasoning requirement on a cash out refinance as long was there was rehab completed on the property.

The only inssue is that i have not found many people in the area that have done it and would like to ask if any one here has done ADU's in Orange County or Long Beach and has it been worth it for you . 

Finally from a purely from a cash outlay prospective short term, you could rent a house with roommates and your payment would still probably be Lower than house hacking because rates are so high, over the long period 5-10 years obviously it would cheaper ti buy, hope that makes sense 

You want to make sure that the developer can perform and that the type of development proposed is needed in the market and that the neighbors don't oppose the project.

If one tenant has been in there for that long, there will also be some serious capex and turnover costs.
