The units are right across the street from a small university and within walking distance to Capitol Hill ( very trendy) International District (like China Town), sports stadiums (go Seahawks), etc.

It's about 16 minutes from the medical district in Memphis but I know Health professionals probably don't want to share a bathroom.

W/o knowing the details of your deal, dealing with dcra and spending well over 6 figures to add a bedroom hardly seems worth it, if you made a mistake you may have to eat a loss, but don’t compound your issues, I only stick to projects that don’t invoke architectural permits in dc but I’ve heard it can easily run 9 month even more if your in an historic district just to get permits.

So it makes sense to choose a home that will make a good rental right from the start.Common factors that real estate investors consider when choosing a good rental property include:The neighborhood, which will influence the type of tenants the home will attract and the rent they can afford to pay.Property tax rates, which vary widely from one place to the next and can have a significant impact on the total return of a rental home.School district quality, crime rate, and overall neighborhood ratings affect occupancy levels and the overall value of the home.Job market and population growth are two indicators real estate investors consider to help predict the future demand from tenants for rental housing.Housing Price Index (HPI) and Housing Affordability Index (HAI) are two other metrics investors use to anticipate rental property demand, because when home prices are unaffordable more people may choose to rent rather than own.Average rents and rent growth also affect where to buy a home to house hack, since the rental income will be used to pay for part of the mortgage and other expenses.
