Finish the basement
My husband and I are in the process of buying our first 4plex. The units are 2 bed 1.5 bath and have unfinished basements. We plan on finishing the basements to bring in higher rent. We are also upgrading the kitchen, painting, installing new flooring, and new fixtures to bring in better renters.
There is a .5 bath on the first floor with the kitchen and living room, and a full bath upstairs with two fairly small bedrooms. My question is should we just put a master bedroom in the basement with a walkin closet and lots of storage, or should we also spend the money on another full bath?the basement is ~480 sq ft
