I'm also going to get my Florida real estate license only for my future investment properties so I can be closer to my daughter too.Who do you recommend for a single agency that can hold both my real estate licenses (Florida & Georgia)?

Awesome, awesome networking and education event and my whole team will be there. 2) If you are young and single, HOUSE HACK A FOUR PLEX WITH YOUR VA LOAN!

I have a single family home so I know what the insurance is on that but I was hoping that somebody can tell me what it would be for a multi unit?   

It would just be an insurmountable task to go out and find every single code violation existing in any given jurisdiction and that is the main reason code violations exist seemingly everywhere.

I’m currently in the process of purchasing a single family house which I will also house hack while renting out my duplex completely.

The table below shows the prior regulations and the newly approved regulations.ITEMPRIOR REGULATION (BEFORE DEC. 17, 2019)NEW REGULATIONS THAT ALIGN WITH CALIFORNIA STATE LAWSEffective DateCity Council approved the regulations below on July 27, 2018 with subsequent updates approved on May 23, 2019; June 25, 2019; and November 19, 2019.On December 17, 2019, City Council approved the following changes, effective immediately upon their vote on Dec. 17, 2019.Zoning DistrictADUs are allowed:• In R-1, R-2, and R-M zoning districts on lots that have one single-family residence.• In Planned Development (PD) districts that are subject to R-1 standards and uses OR where ADUs are not expressly prohibited.• In a low-density cluster development if it conforms to development standards of the R-1 zoning district, and the development and use standards of the low-density cluster permit.ADUs are allowed:• In R-1, R-2, and R-M zoning districts on lots that have one single-family residence.â�¢ On lots with a single-family residence In Planned Development (PD) districts that are subject to R-1 standards and uses OR the ADU conforms to the development and use standards of the PD district.• On any lot with an existing single-family dwelling unit, where regardless of zoning, the lot has any of the following General Plan Land Use/Transportation designations:- Residential Neighborhood- Mixed-Use Neighborhood- Urban Village or Urban Residential- Transit Residential or Rural Residential- Downtown- Mixed-Use Commercial• On two-family (duplex) lots and on multifamily properties• In a low-density cluster development if it conforms to development standards of the R-1 zoning district, and the development and use standards of the low-density cluster permit.Minimum Lot Size3,000 square feetNo minimum lot sizeMinimum Setbacks from Rear and Side Property Lines0 feet for 1-story conversions and new construction.5 feet for second-story ADUs constructed above a garage or accessory structure.0 feet for 1-story conversions and new construction.4 feet for second-story ADUs constructed above a garage or accessory structure4 feet minimum rear and side setbacks required for detached ADU in multifamily developments.Maximum HeightFor detached ADUs:Single story – 18 feet maximumSecond story – 24 feet maximumAttached ADUs are subject to the height limits of the main home.Single-family properties - No change in height requirements.Multifamily properties - 16 feet maximum height for detached ADUs.Rear Yard CoverageArea covered by the ADU, accessory buildings, and accessory structures, except pools, shall not exceed forty percent (40%) of the rear yard.Area covered shall not exceed forty percent (40%) of the rear yard or up to 800 square feet, whichever is greater.Detached ADU Allowed LocationsRear yard only, at least 6 feet away from primary dwelling.May be attached to a detached garage or other existing accessory structure.Must meet minimum setbacks for an accessory building in accordance with Section 20.30.500.No changes except that ADUs that exceed forty percent (40%) of the rear yard must maintain minimum 4 foot side and rear setbacks.

I've been looking at multifamily properties in Baltimore City and I've noticed that the cost per unit for multifamily is higher than the cost of buying a single family rental.

It's somewhat surprising as prices for Mass overall continue on their tear as "last month the median single-family sale price increased 5.8 percent to $402,000, up from $380,000 a year earlier.

My goal is to scale up to as many units as possible over my Career and I have gone from 0 units in 2013 to 14 in 2017 (12 now after selling two single family).

@Michael VerniceThere's no single right or wrong answer to this other than IMO building a spec home is more involved than doing a flip.
