Property Owner in Denver, CO looking for a Designer & Contractor
Hi! My wife and I own a 3 bed / 2 bath home in South Denver. It backs up to a hospital, has a massive back yard, and has a two car garage. The property used to be our primary residence, but about a year ago, we moved to Aurora to be closer to family and friends. I recently learned that Denver passed legislation late last year allowing ADUs to be built on all residentially zoned properties. Right now, we're basically breaking even with rent at $3200.
I'm attracted to the idea of 1) renovating the garage to turn the house into a 4 bed / 3 bath home and/or 2) constructing an ADU and renting that out separately. I'm also planning to list the property on Furnished Finders to target the mid-term rental market given the property is so close to a hospital.
The challenge is that I have no interest in learning the ins and outs of local regulations to determine what (if anything) is actually possible on the property. It does have a unique shape compared to properties around it, borders a utility easement, and still has all of the normal setback requirements. I'm looking for someone who would be willing and able to help me figure out what my options are.
