Its still likely $15,000 - $30,000 depending on your area, but as a dual income household saving $15,000 - $30,000 could be achievable pretty quickly!

Man my life could have been totally different growing up in a Chuck Norris Karate household!!

I will link the article at the bottom containing all the numbers; the metrics used by OSBM including Median Home Value, Property Appreciation Rate, Median Household Income, Median Gross Rent, Median Mortgage Cost.1.

I’ve increased our household income by 110%, cleared debts, saved for the unexpected, and have built a solid floor to stand on.

I know somebody else who has a home they converted with an ADU ;  his household is just him and his wife,  but their tenant ended up being 5 people.   

@Daniel Haberkost@Dennis Cosgrave@Mike McCarthy thanks for the tips.. i'm just thinking..I may give a try in building some small tool like a utility portal to show all the utilities per door and household and to just set alerts if it ever goes overused.

Once a person tells me they or someone else in their household smokes, I tell them that is a deal breaker for us.

For short-term rentals (STR), your household needs to meet material participation rules and both of your hours counts towards the MP hours.

And I essentially have no hobbies aside from fishing and household projects, watch no TV, no sports, since I am already spending an average of 25-30 hours per week in real estate in addition to the 40 I spend in W-2 role.

So I am now teaching, which cut our household income by about a third.
