Feel free to share your experiences and insights as I am eager to hear from those actively involved in the market.

In November I submitted my shared-housing application to Chicago’s BACP, with the hopes using my basement unit as a short term rental unit (Airbnb, VRBO, FF, etc.). 

Depending on cost and effort to do this, it may present an opportunity in San Jose.  

If this property had been in one of the areas zone for more density they would surely have done a normal "Seattle six-pack" of 0-lot-line townhouses but instead they short platted 2 lots to still in effect end up with a six-pack even though in an area not zoned for it, at the cost of having to sell units as condos and deal with other ADU limitations (e.g. 1000sf limit).In 2023 the State mandated Seattle-style ADU regulations across all urban growth area cities/counties, going even a bit further (2 of any combination of attached/detached allowed).

After closing costs, agent commissions, etc... my net profit was $52,000 How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

No, but try free sites like Zillow, Redfin, Realtor.com.

*Read some forums on this page (thanks, y'all are pretty awesome)*Done a bunch of "driving for dollars" (I have a side business inspecting houses that makes this easy/free to do), did the cold calling/research to get to the owners to get to the point of making a few offers.
