A Winnetka Heights Craftsman can be made more affordable for the average buyer through a clever approach.
Keeley and Scott Ellis were initially looking for a home closer to their YouTube production offices in the Design District, but discovered this Winnetka Heights neighborhood just eight minutes away.
“Then we saw it had a guest house,” Keeley said. “We knew if we kept it rented out, it would make our mortgage affordable, so we put in an offer!”
By renting out the guest house, they were able to make their mortgage more affordable and have enjoyed living in the home for two years.
This approach is an example of making a home purchase more affordable, as previously advised.
