GC for adding bedrooms to duplex
Hi,
I may be in a position to acquire a duplex where each unit is 1 bed/ 1 bath.
The tenant is about to move out of one of the units and I was wondering how viable will it be to either add 1 bedroom to that unit or may be add 2 beds and 1 bath for increased case flow.
any gotchas I should be aware of?
If it is a viable option, any idea of the rough costs involved? Any know can recommend a General Contractor they have used?

Always a good idea to value to a unit/property. However, you should also consider the cost of adding an extra bedroom and how much could you increase your rent for + how long will the money be returned back?
