It's just that with Cali, there are many additional hurdles between you and success.

Tell me more about what it is that you are trying to accomplish?

I’ve already again talked to contractors and got good estimates knocking down this one wall adds aton of value to the house.I estimate the additional amount would be $200-$300 a month after a remodel. 

Additionally, a sewer line repair usually results in vacancy and lost rent--even more lost money.A new driveway can easily cost $5k on the low end, and plenty of properties in my area have $15-$25k+ driveways. 

What is your process for underwriting a rental by adding an ADU (addition or division)?

A 10-15 year payback very well might be a MUCH better investment than you are making it sound like because the price of energy goes UP in addition to the lifespan of the system being longer than you suggested. 

Not many would risk everything they own if that was a requirement of investing in a business. if you’re referring to FRAUD”, then the individual committing said fraud can be sued individually, and  can not claim remote entity protection since they and not the entity, or they in addition to the entity are guilty of fraud.  

Megan Luckily the math part isnt too high level just addition, subtraction, some mulitplication and division but we as a community can all help you through it.Leave the complicated math for the wall street quantative analysts and derivative traders.

I didn't like the exchanges being hacked, didn't like the concept of cold and hot storage, 6 word passkeys layers on additional passwords, and those cold storage devices.I actually like my money as digits on a screen, partnerships, and physical real estate.

If you're dealing with an early 1900s home this should be a serious consideration in addition to the above.For the rest of the scope, the same rule applies.
