You will typically need be at $500k+ purchase points but its usually worth it vs buying lower class areas or single families.

I am going to be lending to an investor on a single family home.

They knew all along this was an LLC, every single paperwork sent to them was under the LLC. 

Rental rates are fine for SFHs - I haven't had to drop my rates whatsoever with turnover, nor have I had a single tenant try to negotiate a lower rate. 

As already mentioned, you could sell via seller financing to lower AGI, as all you would have to claim is the payment income - until balloon payment received.Did know an investor that had 14 properties paid off and he moved into one every two years to then sell with the $250k single exemption.

I have 8 single family rentals in 2 single member/pass through entity LLC's. 2 states.

Focus on smaller single-family homes, condos with low HOA fees, or multi-family properties in these regions, and build a reliable local team of agents, property managers, and other professionals to ensure a smooth investing experience.

The ADU is a good idea for property maximization, but unless it has a separate driveway, it will push your rent in the main house down some because then you aren't renting a single-family house on a lot by itself.

The property, though is not beach front, nor does it has ocean view, is just a short drive from some of the best beaches in the west, which are great for surfing, snorkeling, SCUBA diving.In the 1.21 acres there is a main single family home (4 br) which was divided in two sections one of which is being rented.

The newest outdoor is still advertising 1st month free as they haven't filled up, and I spoke with the climate controlled owner/builder yesterday (he's a pretty big REI in the area), and he made it sound like he hadn't leased a single climate controlled unit since they opened a few weeks ago.I recently purchased a 140x45 warehouse with low ceilings and had debated doing self storage, but my market seems very saturated.
