The Best Way to Invest in Real Estate | Infill Housing with ADU | Part 3

We are one week closer to building our new detached ADU!
The intent of this series is to share our favorite real estate investing strategy. We call it infill housing. We buy old houses, fix them up, rent them out and then build new detached units in the back yard. Consider it the BRRRR strategy with a new build added on. Think Build BRRRR.

    Im curious why fabric was not stapled to the framing to form voids for the insulation before applying the drywall?

    Do you need to a licensed general contractor personally to be able to own these properties and do the work like you are along with the sub contracting?

    Good question. Depends on your area/state. In Oregon you can run the job without a GC licence as long as you own it and do not indend to sell. Always check your local rules though.

    I’m trying to understand your reasoning for the garage vs additional living space: I know you said it’s value-add to tenants, but couldn’t you get more yield by having an additional unit back there?

    @ThatADUGuy thanks for the reply! Good to know. I was trying to use a cost per installed sheet of drywall but it's hard to quickly estimate. The cost per sqft helps a lot
