The “no closets” comment makes me nervous, as I have been told numerous times by appraisers that a space is only a bedroom if it has a closet and a means of egress.  

Or as you mentioned, put on a spreadsheet with short and simple explanation.

I am stating it to provide something to ponder and an explanation why it may appear people are ignoring the data.If owners of property impacted by climate events are heavily bailed out by FEMA and other sources, then what is the risk?

I've called numerous times and have been sent to "escalation teams".

Through this platform, I have received numerous booking requests and have been able to select those that align with my requirements in rent-controlled San Diego.

Quote from @Evan Polaski: @Enrique Roth, every investor should be preparing a full appraisal package.In mine, I include 1. before and after photos, 2. 5-6 comps that I want the appraiser to use, WITH explanations of what the comps have or don't have compared to mine.  

As most people have mentioned there are numerous ways to invest, and get into the the real estate world.

I also have consulted numerous local officials as well as HUD in DC.

@Sarah Bratcher Great explanation. 

Judges allow time for these explanations, but only for so long.
