The space will not have head clearance to meet code (only 6' 4" like the bedroom) so my options are to cancel the project or proceed unpermitted.

I've done flips, BRRRRs and buy and hold in the LTR  and MTR spaces.

The garage doors get beat up by the tenants when they run into them frequently.Generally speaking they are good investments as you have more options with the kind of tenants you can get to fill these spaces.

I used to run into trouble with inspectors when using an old garage slab for New living space.

Ultimately we decided to completely replace and revamp both the entire carwash tunnel equipment and also completely remodel the customer lobby are. reversed the staircase to allow for a separate entrance to access the upstairs office space to rent out separate from the washWhat was the outcome?

In this case, you could look into lead gen companies (be careful as this is fairly saturated space).As for CRMs: Podio, Airtable, etc.

Hi BP Community, I have a few long-term rental units, but am thinking about transitioning into the more lucrative space of STR.  

We aren't using the garage at all and aren't planning on doing so, so we thought on making it a living space separated from the house for rent, which we'll sacrifice 1 of the bathrooms to add it to it, and later on do the same with 1 of the rooms as well, though I would have to make an extension to add the rest (kitchen, bathroom, etc.) so that way we could take advantage of the space we aren't using. 

But this space is changing rapidly and in jurisdictions like San Jose where housing is scare, expensive and government entities are motivated to do something about it, I predict we'll see appreciation and other key metrics play out in favor of properties with ADUs in the near future.
