You will learn the time and effort required of managing such a unit.  

Your cashflow to achieve $80,000 per year takes a lot of rental units.  

I currently own a 4-unit in Allentown which has done quite well for me and looking to expand my portfolio throughout LVH.

Thank you.Are you buying a SFR or multi unit?

Good Day all,I have a property in Macon GA , a 1/4 acre of land with a house and a shed (brick foundation, wooden frame).  I'm considering converting the shed into a DADU to maximize the use of the space and earn some...

If you have the extra cash you can buy more units or be able to handle expenses that crop up more easily.

Sure, they may be able to grow to a very moderate size,  add a few units, or trade up to a larger investment, but as for real scalability: NO.Why?  

I'm imagining something more like add a wall, turn a bedroom into a kitchen-living on one side and a formal dining room into a bedroom on the other side, maybe add a half bath in each unit.

I was talking about multifamily closer to 10+ units like you said than just 5 units, so there might have been some miscommunication there.I appreciate and respect you, just wanted to make sure the facts were straight.

Other than the miscommunicated eviction, they have actually been very accomodating through the process and the issues with this one unit get resolved, then I would have nothing but positive things to say about the purchase.
