Additionally, I can receive $40k in gifts from my father and ability to access a $20-60k loan from family at 4% APY interest.

The auditor has some info, too.As for ARV, I am looking at comps from CMAs that brokers and agents provide in addition to the websites everyone uses.Having a crew ready to work (and a lawyer, and a good title co.) seems prudent.

Open to feedback or suggestions.

Wont LLC comes with additional annual tax filling complexity ? 

I have additional space on the lot where I think that I could build an additional duplex or maybe two small single family dwellings.

The question will be whether the city make you add it or not based on the SOW when you pull a building permit.

There are also additional costs of operating and maintaining an LLC, like separate bank accounts, annual report filings, tax filings, etc.2.

"Home" suggests it will be for personal use.

Can anyone suggest a market where one-bedroom STR's that are nicely designed do well?

I'd suggest not noting things like "stabbed coach with a knife" and instead "7" long cut in left cushion of couch" and "4 sq ft area of carpet under den window coated in an unknown substance that stained the carpet".
