In southern CA, even garage conversion ADU additions are typically costing more than the value added.

@Jason Wray Thank you very much for this response ..I’ve never sold one of my rentals before feels like I’m cutting off a leg and paying close to 100k for cap gains is really starting to eat at me 😵‍💫Any chance you would be so kind as to send me a link to something in the ballpark of what you’re suggesting this way I can get an idea of area and what this type of property could look like!

But I would charge the extra 3% to cover my costs.

@Tiffani HollisFor a long-term rental, I’d avoid used dishwashers entirely—repair costs and reliability issues often outweigh the savings.

But me, i will be penalized with the guests relocation costs, according to booking.

I own several hundred rental units in other states, otherwise I'd join you in helping cover the costs.
