As @Alejandro Calixto already mentioned, John is a top notch agent who specializes in the areas you are interested in and can help you clarify your plan and find the right properties that suit those plans.

Consensus is that Specific Performance suits aren't worth it for this small of a deal (Still worth 25k to me).

@Simon Obas I have even mixed brands based on cost and availability (there is an appliance shortage right now) and it can be cheaper than "suites". 

Find a place with an existing inlaw suite, or one that can have an inlaw suite added relatively easily.

That way it's either a 3 bed plus JADU, or a 4 bed plus den w/bar, or 3 bed plus next-gen suite.  

Good luck with that law suit.

We're particularly interested in house-hacking with an ADU or basement in-law-suite.

She has been amazing in terms of recommending what buyers are looking for, so that we can flip our house to suit the market.

The sheer size is impressive, but the list of amenities is really something (grab a snack; this will take a while) and includes: 42 bathrooms, 21 bedrooms, a 5,500-square-foot master suite, a 30-car garage with two car-display turntables, a mote, a 400-foot jogging track, 360-degree views of L.A., 26-foot ceilings, a four-lane bowling alley, a spa level, a movie theater, a 200-cap “philanthropy wing” for charity galas (with floating pods overlooking Los Angeles), a 10,000-square-foot sky deck with a putting green, FIVE swimming pools, a juice bar, a cigar lounge, a custom tequila bar, a hair salon, and a gallery with custom-curated artworks by Creative Art Partners.

Tenants had thermostats in their office suites that they had set at 68 degrees.
