@Kana Watanabe I have seen @Christopher J Driscoll Designs for his ADU and they are amazing, He has gone through the process of speaking with a lot of GC's in the area so hes a great resource for all of the above.

I also have camera's on many of my multi-families so that helps(only on exterior)Keep pushing man!

Their contribution depends on factors like local demand for ADUs, their design and size, and how they’re used (e.g., rental income potential).

Adding and making better could sell or rent faster, but it won't get you more than what the market ARV and rent is set at from other similar comps in the area....and your Interior Design background will help, if you you it mostly as an understanding of cost. 

They designated certain streets not for STRs and others for STRs.

Retirement accounts are designed to be invested passively so when the IRS sees you running an active business in it, to level the playing field between retirement accounts and other business the retirement account incurs UBIT. 

BPOs are typically exterior only and agents usually earn $30 - 50 to complete them, so use them as a reference but not the deciding factor.                                                                                                                                                                     

I interviewed another Syndication and appreciated the fact they said 1) They never lost any of their investors money 2) They aren't currently entertaining deals until they are more solid on the market's direction.  3) their Exits are designed much shorter than ODCs.  

This designation doesn’t cost extra or give the manager access to insurance payouts but ensures you and the property manager are aligned during incidents, such as tenant lawsuits or insurance claims.
