you won't be able to pull a permit. when someone lives in it and it doesn't have HVAC, plumbing, or electrical right and it burns down like another garage I tore down and someone lost their life in linden you'll get hit with a lawsuit. good luck. you'll also be the first person I've ever seen to get a second adu built in linden.

I look at the electric, plumbing and HVAC and predict when they may be replaced.

Complete remodel, redid or replaced all flooring, plumbing, electrical, new roof on the garage and retied all the windows.

Keep bugging them till they remove person.

"Well, I don't wan to pay for all that electricity!

I am thinking of installing a separate meter for electrical and wondering how to split water.

It took us thirteen years to get to the point where both of us could quit our W-2 jobs, or at least substitute our jobs with work we do to support our real estate investing.Yesterday I cleaned out my palm sander, sanded down a door with 220-grit that I had primed the day before, arranged to meet my agent at a property we're about to put on the market, primed a doorframe, read about personal finance for two hours, put together a shelving unit, dealt with a tenant over an electrical and cable internet shutdown.

You also are welcome to do your own plumbing, taxes, legal work, electrical work, landscaping, etc.

Search for homes that have unfinished areas, separate entrances, and plumbing and electrical connections already in place.
