We rent out a small number of storage space (garages) and have no problems (we use Innago).

I want to get into the market My goal is to buy a duplex or single family home with a ADU or converted garage.

The address of the guest house is the same and they would have access to the garage for laundry, not sure if that matters.

I see in many short term rental listings that the garage is being "converted" into a game room.

@Derrick Dill yeah, still sounds great after 10 election cycles of promises to improve child and elderly care with little to no results, because politicians are the greats con-artist in modern history.

You may be able to add another hit by legally converting the garage into an ADU and renting it out.

I have a very small lot and only have roughly 15-20 feet of room between my small one car garage and the property line I am speaking of it would almost double our lot if I could purchase it and give me the ability to build a bigger garage in the future.

HelloBoth properties are sharing the same garage (2 indoor parking spots) and amnesties (pool, common room and gym). - First property listed - click - Second property listed - clickBoth property have 2 Bedroom and 2 Washrooms.

If you were up for adding another building to your parents property (or even converting their garage or another separate building they may have), that could be even more income and with your parents house paid off and tenants paying off the utilities, the only bills would be property taxes. 

Looking for 2-3bd/2 ba one story home with garage.
