All that said, it's water under the bridge.

A buddy of mine just built a duplex on the water in Placencia

I learned the hard way how to shut off water and how to winterize.

The expansion of ADUs hence serves a dual purpose, simultaneously addressing housing affordability concerns and nurturing the urban economic vitality.As far as sewer and water, they would be pulled off the main in the back of the property.

This helps keep me out of hot water with fairhousing. 

I a factoring in the replacement of the AC unit and potentially the water heater, and the cosmetic thins (I would do myself) to get it to rentable standard.

We fixed the foundation and the flat roof issues with pooling water, and rents didn't meet the mortgage just yet.In 2023, we finally started to cash flow.

so i'll throw out my standard cold water.

I also see your point about avoiding bargain basement properties, especially insofar as tax shielding is easier with an asset of a reasonable size.Your point about barriers to entry is also interesting, since I suppose those barriers can be geography (natural boundaries of mountains/water), but you're probably referring to that which impedes future construction?

Are you in a market where water lines could freeze in the winter if there’s no heat?
