Has anyone out there been involved in something similar or have ideas on how I can move forward with this?

Pete area and am very involved in the market here, especially in analyzing rental properties. 

You can go on Thumbtack, TaskRabbit, etc and handymen will not go out for less than $125 a job plus supplies.What most owners who are not hands on do not understand is the value for their time.

Verifying last 2 years of rental history and income extremely important to find the “best of the worst”.Make sure you understand the Class of properties you are looking at and the corresponding results to expect.The City of Detroit has 183 Neighborhoods we’ve analyzed.DM us if you’d like to discuss this logical approach in greater detail!

If anyone is willing to share their experiences, advice, or point me towards resources that could help in understanding the market better, I would be immensely grateful.

I'm an LP in a Syndication where DLP is also involved. 

My goal is to understand the current demand and rental potential for ADUs in this part of the city, as well as the costs involved in building.

Chris- I understand the position you are in all too well.
