How do you go about deciding whether to add large scale amenities vs another building or using the space for something similar. i think even if the foundation is usable from for the ADU, far from a certainty, that your cost estimate is off by approximately a facor of 2 (meaning it will cost close to twice your estimate assuming you are not doing a lot of the work yourself).  

I was thinking I pay that off, and then snowball that into my primary house, and try to pay off primary house, about 470k left there.

You plan an active role so it should not be as pronounced as a hands off ADU addition.  

There are way too many varibles and you'll either end up way off or get overwhelmed and become paralyzed. 

I will say I was quite put off.

Goal of 6 properties in total (including personal home)2016The plan: Ramp up my purchasing schedule - having built more resources, developed a level of comfort and understanding of the processes of deal finding, purchasing strategies, and other aspects of buy and hold investing.

The refinance will get our down payment back, along with the current mortgage and renovation loan paid off.

If not, you may be better off just standing pat.
