That might be something that continues the mo for Denver when the rest slow down.

Rent the rest.

The rest I kept in a bank account earning 6% (in a simple savings account! 

Like we did with the rest of the house we spent serious money renovating and improving the addition,   with the intentions to rent it as a separate unit with separate entrance while we lived in the original 3/2 floor plan.Where the issues lies, the kitchen in the granny flat is unpermitted the lot is zoned for SFR, there is a handful of other unpermitted, not to current code or plan issues throughout the 60 y.o. house, mostly before the purchased the home. 

State and federal laws need to be understood at this time and rest assured change is coming.

In the coming future, there might be great opportunities for the growth that is arresting the rest of metropolitan Texas to make inroads into the underutilized Killeen labor market.As a Realtor and owner of a home, rental SFH and 4-plex in the area, that is certainly what I am hoping for.Also, from my working with investors, the multi-family market is pretty hot.  

I have had them work out but I would say less than 10% of the time and I did well over a hundred of these in the early 2000 and I can count two that actually bought it back and only because a relative gave them the cash to buy it back.. the rest defaulted over time as I stated..

Most experienced GCs like me don't want to manage bits and pieces of a projet, while the client does the rest.

I'm sure I'll remember the rest later.Thanks in advance.

Be concern if they have evictions, criminal history, do they have income to support the rent the rest doesn't mean anything.Joe Gore
