Purchase price: $825,000 Cash invested: $45,000 House Hacking a Duplex in Logan Heights San Diego. two detached units, the front unit is a 4/2 and the rear unit is a 2/1.

I'm currently renovating my rear/back unit and it is the perfect time to potentially add another unit to the lot. 

We updated the electrical and insulation throughout the entire building, renovated the kitchens and bathrooms of two units and rebuilt the exterior rear staircase.

There is a long winding driveway that leads to the garages in the rear with stairs that go up to the living level and actual FRONT door.  

You will get a lot of no's but you will also get a couple of yes's as a lot of people in the RE are very generous from what I found. 

Opportunities in RE are likes buses.

Part of the job was some major excavating in the rear yard which involved removing a collapsed pool and patio, regrading the yard and seeding.

Consist of a brick three flat in the front and the coach house in the rear. 

So the interior is built out as 8 cubicles (not the easy take down wall type but actual office build out for each cubicle), 15' ceilings, 7200 sqft 1st floor 5900 sqft finished basement 2100 sqft 2nd floor in rear of building, 60' road frontage, no designated parking lot.Obviously the most cost effective route to fill this space is to find a tenant that needs Office space but we all know the state of office space in the current market.

So this reared its head again.
