Haven’t had a call that was a complaint in over a year since we evicted a problem tenant, and her complaint was that we wouldn’t deliver her a case of water because she doesn’t drive. 

Getting hold of them and then retrieving information is like trying to get water out of a stone :-/

for 1050/month all bills paid. they claim this cash flows 3600/month (4200-600). the math on that is they say electric is 90 unit, trash and water is 50 each for all 4 so theres your 600 and say they can provide receipts on all this. it's located  a handful of miles, about 6-8, outside the nearest small town with a wal mart etc.one thing is it seems better apts, in town with 600-800 ft, go for more like 1k no bills paid. even adjusting for the all bills paid part, i feel like 1050 is aggressive on these. otoh near me some crappy tiny apt with mold and everything go for 750, and these are much nicer than that. i think 700-800 would be an absolute floor on what they could rent for.i guess i just have no idea for example, insurance?

Every 7-10yr'ish you need to replace a water, or whenever it goes, so maybe $1500. 

I will rent to him for remainder of life for 1000.00 My thoughts are in ca adu are allowed and almost pushed upon us I have raw land with water to it I was going to write a plan to have a structure manufactured home cause the utilities and set up are provided in cost rent to the guy who is willing to buy the structure and borrow some money from the trust it says she has discretion to do that! 

You don't want to narrow your buyer pool when you sell your house in future just because they might don't want the ADU but decent size backyard is always good and has its potential.If I were you, I would rather try to find deal in hayward/union city/san leandro single family house.

Obviously, I don't know anything about your finances, so for all I know, you may have a few million in the bank, and this project is just a fun experiment that wouldn't even be a drop in the bucket if it all turns south...but, regardless, you'll want to model out what would happen if this project crashes and burns...As you may know, managing a rental in a D to F area (or even a C area) is usually not recommended (for many reasons), and funding a rehab with credit cards is also usually not recommended (again, for many reasons). ...even highly experienced investors often won't touch anything lower than C grade because of all the difficulties of managing and re-selling them...If you're dead set on rehabbing the place and keeping it, I'd strongly suggest studying up thoroughly on the local rental market and tenant pool (e.g.; rent medians and lower and upper bounds, typical days on market before securing a tenant, local vacancy rates, tenants' typical income, education level, employment opportunities, credit, and rental history).

Please feel free to check out my profile for more details on the investment, but we were able to spend 1 year slowly renovating the apartments as tenants moved in and out, invested heavily into leasehold improvements (long-term fixed like HVAC, water heaters, exterior paint, property drainage, etc), converted month-to-month tenants to annual leases, and raised rents to market. 

I had considered maintaining a certain dollar amount in reserves and semi annually diverting 75% of the income to the beneficiaries and the other 25% into a separate account designed for expansion so that the pool does not get too watered down as the family grows. 

Guests will constantly be complaining about the water temp with a 110.
