Just trying to get around like minded people with fresh ideas.

Hi all,I’m just getting my feet wet with Real Estate investing and currently taking online courses on the investment process, principles of calculating returns, performing market analysis, analyzing cash flows and the different types of investment opportunities.

What’s the point of getting a permit?

., does zoning allow for short-term rental use or would a future owner be at risk of it getting shut down by the city).

@Matt Motil  Have you heard of anyone legally getting the city to change the 2-family status to 3-family?  

As others said it depends on area and how much headache/risky tenants you get.

Otherwise I would start getting hit with very nasty taxes.
