If you're okay with what is basically a tiny home (they can be very nice), then you might be able to get close to $100k but it will be close.From a lot coverage standpoint, if you're under 800sqft or 1000sqft in CA, typically you are exempt from lot coverage issues.On the comps and appraisal issue, the adu comps should count towards square footage, but that doesn't necessarily mean it will appraise at the same cost per sqft as the rest of the house. 

On paper, their application looks good and doesn't show any red flags, but in person they are demanding and extremely nit-picky about tiny little details about the house.So how do I deny someone when they meet all the criteria on paper, but I can see they will be a problem tenant in the future?

Over 15 years, of a very tiny drip created black mold in the wall and behind the cabinets.

I am also thinking I want to replace the somewhat tiny kitchen. 

If you could just give up eating and live in a paid fir tiny house trailer, off grid, you should be able to build wealth even faster. :)

If you do this, you have done what you promised you would do: move in.I've seen people purchase properties with tiny in-law units, live in the tiny unit, and rent the main home out.

I help investors buy and sell real estate, doing the legal bits to make their transactions smooth.I'm also developing tiny home villages which is great way to polish both real estate and land use law areas.As far as bartering legal services for % ownership, it sounds great but could be a violation of the modern ethical rules of practice.

Tiny bathrooms though do benefit from a window even if you can make them to code some other way.

We always increase each year even if just by a tiny bit to keep tenants aware of procedure.
