Fantastic options for STRs when you control the space (and costs).

Another option for getting into properties quicker is to have your own representation (vs. contacting the listing agent).

It may not make sense for your personal finances if over invest and end up with a house hack option that costs more money than somewhere you could live on your own.2.

Hello, Dean Valadez, I think the best way is to weigh your options then take it from there. 

Is there any options other than cutting my losses?

In addition buying an existing ADU has the following advantages over building one 1) typically pay less for the ADU than the cost of doing a hands off ADU addition 2) get RE purchase financing which is superior to financing that is specific to the ADU addition.  3) there is no delay between financial outlay and income when purchasing an existing ADU.  

I discovered that credit scores are not the only determining factor for financing.

(Goal: either we can sell in 2 years and get the free capital gains or we can keep the great primary residence financing and rent it anytime.) 

Hey BiggerPockets community,I’m looking for some advice on selling my investment property in Riverside, California, especially since I’m considering offering creative financing options.
