SFR Zoning and a Two-Family Opportunity

Joe Stubbe

Hello,

I came across an opportunity in Texas to purchase a large residence with an additional large "guest house" - separated privately by two, 2-car garages.  The idea was to purchase, rent out one part and live in the other...however it's zoned for Single Family (R40).  Ideally, we would be looking for a long term rental in the other half, but realize this would be challenging given the zoning.  So we intend on playing by the rules, is there any chance of potentially getting this re-zoned or get an exclusion?  I realize it's probably city specific, but wanted to reach out to get opinions before I go walk the property.  Thanks for everyone's input!
