Go with a wooden privacy fence over chain-linked.

Other legal docs disclose the real value for privacy. 

Needs work but new light floors, paint all that black woodwork to white, privacy fence etc and she could shine.  

I would like to argue that this code doesn't apply to changing an existing window to a sliding door where the width of the opening doesn't change and it won't affect the neighbor's privacy due to existence of a masonry wall.

This allows you to rent one part of the property while living in another, and still maintaining your privacy. 

@Sean WildeI’m completely spitballing but what about cryptocurrency?

Again, if you really value privacy then don't do it, but if you're open to the work and possible headaches, then it can be really good cash flow.Good luck!

But as COVID-19 is still going on, we have to WFH, which needs more privacy due to conference call.Besides, there is no way that rents cover mortgage payment.

Yes I’m looking to rent the basement out for privacy as well room for.
