I rather have little skin in the game, then nothing at all.

I wanted to post it just to pique some interest and hope to hear some opinions as it covers two of my favorite subjects.

@Claudio Garcia ZunigaI have two all star lenders if you need a referral here in Austin.

I'm looking at a two homes at guard-gated community in Coral Gables Estates with a home with an incredible view of the city; however, we also found a smaller decent home in Paradise Valley that has more land.

Since the space is usually open where the pews were, it gives you a lot of options for games or unique things for the space.

Decide which game you want to play.

My cousin and I are considering acquiring a two-unit home in Tuscany.

So what's your end game here?

From there, as an owner-builder, you can either sub out the work to licensed contractors or do the work yourself.One very important thing to consider is separation between the two living units. 

Here's the difference between the two - a CPA typically has to have a bachelor's degree in accounting and masters level of education then pass a series of difficult accounting exams, while an accountant may have zero qualifications; this could be your local bookkeeper who learned everything on the job.There is also an Enrolled Agent.
