Thank you all for advice 

I have to sell a property out of state (for Farther in law), would it be easier and most cost effective to sell with realtors or sell to another bigger pockets member. 

Location is Little Rock, AR

I am currently looking a home that was built in the 60s. The owner has discussed that it is unknown if there is lead paint (never been tested).  I have had a suggestion that all home in this time frame have lead paint, however if I do no get it inspected for lead paint, I will not be required to fix the problem. Knowing that new paint has been painted over the existing old paint. Would this be a smart move to move forward knowing it could up when I try and resale later on? 

A little about the property:

This is a home I plan to fix up (carpet and new paint only). Live in for a year then rent out and move on to another project. Purchase price is $230K, ARV $300-$315K

 Does it have to be zoned SF 2 or could it be zoned SF 1?

@Will R.

The Austin City Council voted Thursday to ease regulations for building garage apartments. I assume this will help investors in Austin, as the duplex market seems overinflated. Any thoughts or strategies from the BP community?  

Does this apply to type 1 permits?

@Saberian Younger

Great information Siberian.

@Gary Ennis Great, thank you

@Gary Ennis@Scott Sutherland Do either of you know if their are different taxes or permits for owner occupied vacation rental? (i.e. Duplex, renting out spare side) 

Thank you for sending this information. Do you have as an excel file? Also This looks like your vacancy rate is around 50%. Is that typical for a VR?
