Hi,I'm considering submitting an offer on a property that's a couple blocks away from Main St in Downtown Littleton.

If I'm understanding this correctly it mainly makes sense if you either plan on holding the property or doing a 1031 exchange in the future?

So, your prediction that there would be at least $20k more if everything is included should be accurate.The reason for choosing a JADU is that converting the garage into an ADU would require a separate laundry setup and an additional electrical panel in the main house, which would increase the renovation costs for the main house itself.

I’m looking at investing outside of California; mainly Kansas.

Its just very rare that this happens and this is mainly paranoia getting into peoples brain that they would need some sort of protection because of some high profile cases that have gone around the internet. 

Basically the outskirts of main cities.

I'm planning on quitting soon, moving back home for a little and taking a few months in between my next job to pursue my first investment.My rough idea for an investing strategy is:  long-term, not necessarily looking for high cashflow (just want to start building equity), quality deals > amt. of doors, Class A/B neighborhoods mainly for low vacancy. 

From what I got from the info I was getting regarding land co tracts , the main benefit is if you are offering terms to the buyer.

You're right, I should have said once a year or more....because one of the main benefits of the inspection is to have a professional on-the-record.

I built an ADU where the front house was technically a Triplex and back house was an ADU but the ADU couldn't be more than X% of the total area of the main house.
