Lets say I bought in a strictly cash flow market and brought in and extra 500$ per month on the property meanwhile I am getting very little appreciation on this property.

While Raleigh is strict with their STR laws, Durham is more open to the strategy.

It did not pass the township codes also.

They will also save you tremendous time.That being said, it's still worthwhile familiarizing yourself with the tax code.

I was looking in specific zip codes at 4/2 properties with more than 1500 sqft.

I go strictly for appreciation and the rents barely pay the bills and keep up with inflation.

These are professionals with additional training and a stricter code of ethics.

Condition of property has to meet health and safety code and you have to legally remove whoever is living there.

You will need ADA hallways and bathrooms (generally 36 inch clearance for a wheelchair to do a 360 or more) You'll need the electrical to exceed code and add carbon monoxide and smoke detectors that are commercial flashers for hard of hearing and blind.

I am looking into a Flip and with the new Codes for ADUs available in CA, I was looking for opinions of whether to build an ADU versus having a nice private yard?
