Currently considering taking the course myself and it is nice to have someone lay out their path.

The vast majority of units in similar buildings with similar layouts are renting right at $825 per month.

ADU layout.

The design is a critical part for us too, we have enlisted an architect design our 4 layouts.

It's also a delicate balance; reaching out to enough people so you have a chance - but also limiting your list to people likely to want to sell.There are some do-it-yourself sites like ListSource and ListAbility, but you might consider working with a list broker.

But living in the same but different layout town home, we know what it might need for rehab.

We only have a house or two, we say.And just because we got away with not having a professional layout when we got the mortgage for our first rental or even second rental, we think it's okay just to present a mortgage company, bank or hard money lender, just some figures written down on a piece of paper or on an Excel Spread Sheet.But what happens when the time comes when you want to really expand.

@Pierre-Luc AllieThe layout should work fine. 

In this case, I changed the kitchen layout, adding veggie sink to the island, while moving the main sink and dishwasher to an outside wall.

I can recommend these fascinating books for those who want to dig deeper (from their armchairs):How To Live In Detroit Without Being A Jackass, by Aaron Foley (bonus if you can ID the cover design reference)Detroit: The Dream Is Now, by Michel Arnaud (these 2 books alone will show the delicate balance needed between Old and New)Unreal Estate Guide To Detroit, by Andrew Herscher (highlights the quirky underground creativity that permeates the city)
