@Jason Boritz We just recently finished an ADU in La Puente, CA. With approved plans it should not be that difficult. Our biggest set back was not even the setting up of power, it was the inspector putting the request to Edison, so that they could drop the line. That process has been one for the record books for delays after delays. One developer to another, I would inquire from you local ordinances on how to go about that process. Let me know how I can provide value to your project?

@Grace Ronquillo is your appraiser through the refinance company or is this your own? How exactly are they comparing to a duplex? Are there duplex that have similar lot size? Combined sq. footage similarities? In some cases, I've heard of appraiser only taking the ADU into account for comparable rental income as a factor? I'm curious to what is being done.

Hey @Chaz Reid
What's SME ?
Here is a mini lesson on subject to
Subject to means get the deed or subject to existing financing
You buy the house subject to the existing financing
It's on the HUD 1 what loans are being taken subject to the existing financing
The business model is cash or terms
Low equity deals like 95% loan to value deals are commonly use subject to or lease-option assignment or wraparound mortgage purchases
I generally talk to sellers are not agents
The closing question is,
Mr. Mrs. seller I know you could pay the cost to sell with an agent but you probably have to pay to get rid of the house, as the cost to sell about 10% to 12% of the value of the house
You could rent it out
But here's a question I want you consider
What if I can get you a payment that would pay your P ITI for 24 months, someone would move into your house take care of it, at the end of the 24 months your house price would be whatever you are we can some mortgage or the ending balance, I don't even know if I can get my business partner to agree to it but if I could get those 24 payments paid on time, and you kept the loan in your name for 24 months just assuming the payments, with that be something you'd even consider or maybe not?
Brian,
This was spot on to what I am looking for? How did you find these properties at the time? Direct Mail?

Fellas,
I hope all is well. I was wondering if you have any solid connections with contractors or property managers that have construction teams in place. I am looking to invest in some properties, but we have no boots on the ground in that area. Any suggestions?

@Joanna Golden @Tom Ott @James Wise @Michael Swan @David Helmick @Rob Gillespie @Michelle Fenn @David Leggett @Ryan Evans @Stipe Ba
Hello Team,
I hope this message finds you well. I need a little help. My wife and I are new to out of state investing. We are looking to purchase a multifamily 1-4 units with an ALL in budget around 90-100k, which would include the purchase, rehab, insurance, tax, any other associated costs for this investment. Goal would be to refinance and get 140K and do it again. We would like between $150-200/month per unit in cash flow if possible. Now I spoke with a wholesaler about these numbers and it appears that they were not feasible or beyond their scope of interest. If each of you would please weigh in on a potential area(s) of Ohio to look for some properties that meet these criteria? If you have any realistic suggestions or maybe a new perspective on our approach, I am open to listening. Thank you for your time and consideration. I really do appreciate it!!
Kind Regards,
OAP
