query=garage#sear...If you can rent a 2 garage at $450 without spending ~$150k for a garage ADU conversion, no work/risk of the ADU conversion, the lower maintenance/capex, easier eviction, no rent control, less tenant interaction, it will not convert your SFR to rent control, etc, it seems superior to the garage ADU conversion.  

Quote from @Leeling Chew: Hi all,My tenant's lease expires on December 31, 2024, and converts to a month-to-month tenancy with a $150 rent increase.

Years ago, a friend of mine took on a similar challenge in an older neighborhood near Chicago..he opened up the top floor to create a master suite that felt less like a converted attic and more like a boutique hotel room.

Remove the kitchen all together and convert it back into two duplexes or is there another option?  

The current option that we are looking at is buy, live in 1-2 months of the year, convert to MTR or STR for the other months (especially since we are flexible on our end). 

Hi, I have converted 12 sfh to legal duplexes in oshawa.

However, after seeing what we could offer in terms of amenities, location and service, they happily paid the premium rent associated with renting from us.I am not a natural salesman, but reading books on marketing, sales and hospitality has greatly improved my ability to convert a lead.

But if so, you don't have to convert your LLC to an S-corp (or create one) in December.

Most people are poor and can’t both develop the land and convert to buying the land from the government.  

Love seeing good things happening in a neighboring city.Curious, you mention converting this to apartments?
