STUDIO/MOTHER IN-LAW SUITE CONVERSION. DO NOT OWN THE PROPERTY, JUST THE INVESTMENT IN CONVERTING THE LIVING SPACE.
WILL HOLD FOR 6 YEARS AND WILL MAKE MONEY BACK IN 2.5 YEARS. WILL DOUBLE MONEY IN 6 YEARS. OWNER GETS INCREASED PROPERTY VALUE AND A UNIT HE CAN THEN RENT OUT AFTER I AM DONE WITH IT. USED MY OWN FUNDS FOR THE DEAL.

DO NOT CAPTURE RE SALE OR APPRECIATION. ALSO DIFFICULT THAT IT RELIES ON SOMEONE ELSE OWNING THE PROPERTY.
