If you are buying in a LLC there is typically a loan agreement and personal guarantee that is common

Rates can be very similar to those of conventional financing (Fannie/Freddie - full doc loans that you will need to prove income to get), but typically a little higher than conventional financing. 2nd - Networking and partnerships! 

With permit, benefits are 1) get depreciation and other tax write off benefits since it’s a permitted investment purpose ADU, 2) probably better for resell value, 3) have a separate address and don’t have to bother sorting out mails for our legal tenant, etc. without permit; benefits are 1) no hassle to get the permit, 2) no permit fees, 3) no tax on rental income (as it is more like a “roommate”)Has anyone gone through a similar situation before?

Quote from @Chris Seveney: @Francisco AvancenaThere are specific lenders who will do land dealsBut of course not as many as traditional real estate.The key will be skin in the game - typically for land because it is less liquid than a home the lender will want to have a lower ltv on the deal I fund land flippers currently in  CO FLA WA ID MT NV AZ OR TX SC GA VA  one thing about land though LTV is lower and RATES are NOT the same as typical HML rates are higher for raw land but its a specialty niche and a business that I grew up in..

So if I am looking at an asset as a 10 year play - I look more at the location, schools and how has this market performed in the past excluding covid and 2008 which were extenuating circumstances.Reality is right now shorter term plays do not work based on numbers and cost of financing - we went through this same thing in 2001-2004ish timeframe where properties would appreciate 2-3% per year and after buying costs and closing costs - you were not making money on assets unless you performed the labor or found a really good deal.this is how real estate "typically" is - which is why everyone always says location location location - because after a decent holding period, you will win.

Do you typically reevaluate your current returns based on the net equity you have in your properties?
