I’d love to hear about your investing journey and I hopeI can bring you some value as well!

That's clouds up the property's value on top of the residential/commercial confusion -- so just ditch the JADU idea, I say.I would solicit more construction quotes, too. $500K for a renter-grade garage conversion is quite high.

Wholesaling is getting a contract signed below market value and selling that contract to a back-end buyer.The fact that wholesaling is saturated has nothing to do with the difficulty to do consistent deals and close these deals and make money.What IS saturated is marketing.

That really does not add value to the house unfortunately.

I’ve heard you should factor in:Strengths WeaknessesWantsOpportunitiesMy strengths are that I’m handy (I’ve been fixing things on my own home since 2021) and I work in industrial & commercial HVAC so I would add value with labor. 

VA loanHow did you add value to the deal?

Or what seems crazy to me.Is it legal to create a 501c3 organization to buy investment properties and rent them out at fair market value?

Rehab Cost:  100,000Zillow Est Value:  350, 000 - 412,000ARV:  450,000

A 1031 exchange can be a good option because although there is no cash involved in the deal, you would still recognize a gain based on the fair market value of the properties being received over the basis of the property you're giving up (if it's a gain).

DSCR loans have varying seasoning periods but if you completed rehab that can support the new value, you can bypass that requirement.
