@David Krulac, it's about learning and applying the Law of Attraction in all areas of your life to attract more of what you want out of life and less of what you don't ;-).

If there was ADU specific financing, that might be attractive (none that I'm aware of?).

So I am going to hold off for now and focus on an SFR. https://www.loopnet.com/Listing/9335-S-South-Chicago-Ave-Chicago-IL/16404915/https://www.loopnet.com/Listing/7421-S-Coles-Ave-Chicago-IL/17239821/But these are attractive numbers, I would like to know what the challenges are going to be and if such an MF in that region can be managed 100% remotely through a property manager.

As a newbie to BP, I can't comment on the old website, but I can say that the new site is great...easy to navigate, good visual layout and SO much valuable content!

The clientele that you might attract with a 'medium term rental' would be people who are looking for a place to stay for ~1-6 months.

There is a sequence you need to follow, you attract attention every day of the week leading up to the open house.

Maybe you could share more about your background and what you bring to the table to attract rehabbing mentors?

We know that the place attracts those type of people who are willing to plunk down that kind of cash and avoid the chicago winters.

Yet, they attract similar tenants as apartments do.

With the housing meltdown, the property value is down and so I cannot even sell without taking a hit, plus renting has become harder and there is a lot of pressure to reduce rent etc...So this strategy will enable me to have more flexibility on being competitive on the rent i charge which I reduce to attract stronger tenants, without taking a loss on my monthly rent cashflow...I was looking at all the options given my circumstances etc...Please advice as I am new to all this...What do others do in my scenario...thanks
