I  used Home Depot's Web site to select the doors I wanted and also used the Homewyse website to get a second set of numbers, and they came both pretty close to each other at $1800 products and $1300 labor.I then contact Home Depot to get a person on site to inspect and take measurements, and a couple days later I get an estimate with two sections: Customer Pickup #1 for $2695, and Installation #1 with $0 total.

Ideally what you want to do is use funds from an IRA that is giving you single digit returns and roll it into RE to maximize your assets, especially with passive income.

Ideally, you should consider creating an outdoor private space just for the ADU, even if it’s a small uncovered area.

Potentially they would be ideal for the acquisition as well as the construction all in one loan. 

Or you work for a wealthy customer who knows the deal and checks up on you. 

I'm ideally looking for companies that have experience with larger homes and who also have basic maintenance capabilities to address issues like broken toilets, replacing HVAC air filters, etc.Any response here or via DM is appreciated, thanks!

We must do right by the customer, even if it means a lower commission, or even worse: Losing the deal. 

They're all within two hours of the bay area, which is ideal for me.

So, ideally that would be a cash-out refinance of your personal home to the highest LTV you can get on a conventional loan and then moving to a home that has an investment play associated with it (a house-hack or something else). 

Ideally I’d like to be all in with my money around 12% or less.
