Anyone added a bathroom recently in an older rental home?
My favorite rental has 1.5 baths! BUILT 1964 during a drought so city put a limit on plumbing. But the finished basement has plenty of room to add a 3/4 ==house has to be empty to do this==competing properties selling in the <350K with 2 baths. If I add a 3/4 it will have “3” baths so very desirable
2100 sq ft with a gorgeous huge sun porch and many mid-century details, hardwoods, great location
Very safe, walk to huge park
Probably have to pay someone (GC) to draw up plan and building dept might not issue permits (plumbing, electric, walls, etc) so that might be cost.
