there you go. the problem is appraisal. comparable sales, and your approach to building an ADU against the recommendation of your market. super beginner strategy it's popular in ohio as well but just not worth the investment. 

For example, if you buy a home for 100k, and then improve the property and now it is worth 200k. 

Our plan is to own $100 million worth of real estate by 2030 and become the premier property management business in all of Indiana.

A friend of mine recently got a $2M umbrella policy for around $300 annually by bundling it with home and auto insurance; it’s worth exploring.Out of curiosity, are you primarily investing in residential properties or venturing into commercial spaces?

If it was for a personal residence I might be a little more concerned but I feel like $5000 worth of work isn’t very significant.

This is listed in public records.

That's not exactly an up and coming area -- I'd research who built them - can likely find that by going to the SG County Recorded Docs site or by seeing who pulled the permits during const -- Wichita has been on a duplex building boom -- look at the tax value -- They probably have that or less in it on the build - I also doubt they were built to be quality long term -- things such as the trim/cabinets etc -- they all look like the cheapest stuff a guy could buy - if the cabinets aren't oak and there is MDF or pine trim and pre-hung doors with engineered wood jams I'd run.  2-3 yrs ago for $180k -205 or so you could buy duplexes in Maize, Kechi, Valley center all day to builders that were selling them off to investors - not worth that in that area.

@Jamie Parker pay for some one-on-one time with @Jonathan Greene - it'll be worth it!

dont over think this its not that complicated. important issues are.1. cost of capital2. knowing what a deal is or is not.3. good reno crew or contractor  4. good agent that will tell you straight what its worth when done and what level you should rehab to.5. a market that is actually moving napkin math works  trying to drill down to decimal points does not.

They can't print the envelopes cheaply enough to make it worth while, so I would still run the envelope through the printer.
