I own property in Marlborough also but no matter what, when you do a conversion you will have to make the property compliant to today's building codes after passing all zoning, parking, and safety specification.

They can offer guidance on compliance, permits, and inspections required before you can legally rent out the property.Investing in these initial steps will not only help ensure your property is safe and compliant but also potentially increase its value and appeal in the rental market.

Hi Dave per the rep at Senior Living Fund they do have a 1031 compliant DST now.

IE scenarios, steps, tools to be compliant?

And many times, you can get non-compliant tenants to move out before the eviction process plays out by talking with them.I am not aware of a way to account for tons of pets unless you convert the property to a pet boarding business.  

If you took pictures at your old GCs work, got several quotes from licensed companies, specified on that quote something like "remove non-compliant newly installed wiring" and have them done the work, then you probably have a bond claim up to $15,000, IF the GC is licensed and bonded -- which I don't see you mention.

The liquidity of a note is based on its characteristics which make is saleable: pay history, equity, borrower credit, down payment, etc; (of course this is assuming its Dodd Drank compliant, has a good chain of title, etc) and the liquidity of how quickly it can be sold on the secondary market is dictated by price, aka yield.

. - The closing costs/fees would result in a total cost to loan ratio that is too high, making the loan not compliant- The couple lenders that will refinance some equity out will not bundle the properties, generating sizeable closing costs for each of the 3 loans.- One commercial bank I've spoken with will bundle all three properties into one loan, however will no approve me due to debt to income ratio; I have a mortgage in my name for my father in laws house (he pays mortgage and resides there) so they see the debt but no rental income.- Hard money will do the loan but with rates at above 8% with sizeable origination fees and significant pre-payment penalties.I was hoping some of you seasoned folks could help me figure out some creative financing solutions for this little conundrum. :)

They take care of the details, such as getting permits and ensuring that your building is compliant.

While most Net Zero buildings are energy efficient, perhaps even highly so in comparison to minimum building code requirements, there is nothing requiring them to anywhere new the efficiency level of a Passivhaus   .... this is why you will see odd things like warehouses with large rooftop solar installations being able to claim Net Zero.On the other hand, Passivhaus sets three metrics which a building must meet to be certified as Passivhaus compliant:  The building must have a heating and cooling demand of not more than 15 kWh/m2 (4,755 BTU/sq ft; 5.017 MJ/sq ft) per year  and a peak heat load of 10 W/m2.Total primary energy consumption (energy for heating, hot water and electricity) must not be more than 120 kWh/m2 (38,040 BTU/sq ft; 40.13 MJ/sq ft) per yearThe building must not leak more air than 0.6 times the house volume per hour (n50 ≤ 0.6 / hour) at 50 Pa (0.0073 psi) as tested by a blower door.Ironically, the research and pilot projects which fuelled what eventually became the Passivhaus standard was carried out in Saskatchewan as a National Research Council (NRC) project in the 1970s (the house is still in use today) and a similar project (Minnesota?)
