With that said, I'm not trying to be just comfy forever and that's why the last 6 months I've been really digging deep into learning about REI so I can make it a side hustle that one day I can maybe quit my job off eventually. 

Getting the process started for converting my garage into finished space on my house hack I bought in November, and I'm looking for recommendations from the BP community for a contractor.

Eventually completely paying off my personal home to where all I have is the HELOC available for more deals.

There is a rather large garage in the back that I am thinking about converting into a garage apartment if zoning will allow it. 

I think for retail you need to get rid of it and convert first floor to office or apartments.

If you converted money from a Traditional IRA to a Roth IRA it is counted as Basis after 5 years and can then be withdrawn without taxes or penalties.

The way i have my Leases structured is it is a 12 month lease, and then it converts to a month to month after that.

If I find that situation, I would close on that property and convert the garage into a room as there is an obvious demand for it.

(we converted it to a SDIRA upon death and the SDIRA purchased the property) Since it's inherited, we are required to take RMD's.

As far as the FHA one:This analysis is for when you eventually move out and rent it out fully.
