And unemployment is starting to tick up.

My plan was to start selling a house or 2, in maybe 8 months once the tenant pays down the mortgages a bit more.

@Lucas CarlThank you but Where do I start?

For example getting settled prior to the school year starting for their children in a new school district.

Hi,I'm starting to research tax lien investing.

Start small and build from there!

Since the number of sales is so low and owners hold on as long as they can it will take a major market shift to start seeing comparables with the ADU variable. 

a live in flip that leverages your own skills and contacts could be good - it's a lower risk way to get started.

You could always start off one way, and then go another.  

Just make sure you know how your going to setup your take-out/permanent financing before you start this process as cashout refi's for conventional have seasoning requirements now and delayed financing has rules and timelines as well.
