I'm looking into a few different loan options.

These lenders often have more experience and flexibility with properties that include ADUs and JADUs.Community Banks and Credit Unions: Local community banks and credit unions may be more willing to work with you, especially if they have a better understanding of the local real estate market and the value ADUs and JADUs bring to a property.Mortgage Brokers: A mortgage broker may have access to a wider range of lending options and could help you find a lender willing to consider your property.

Hey Les, are you looking at traditional financing to use increased leverage or would you be going with a 20% down option?

For example, exploring options like PadSplit for shared housing or MTR strategies could provide avenues to achieve the 1% rule or better.
