- Value add - How much does it cost to convert Non-climate controlled units to climate controlled units?

If I donated to aids health foundation and they spent the money on rent control instead of aids research or health care, I would be pissed.  

Also don’t forget landscaping and general pest control (termites) if applicable.

So far the concerns I have discovered would be things like control of collateral, maintenance requirements/margin calls, and various fees that may be charged on quarterly or annual basis.

And given #3 above, it leaves about 20% of rent for all other expenses like property tax, insurance and other PM expenses like leasing fee, eviction fee and other minor expenses like for e.g landscaping, pest control etc.

Just like going to an auction where lots of people are bidding and there is a frenzied atmosphere... and you want to be a part of the action...you bid too, is not a good (controlled) way to spend your money.  

And the truth is, if the investment property was completely passive and you had zero connection with it, such as an arbitrary stock in a mutual fund, then I would agree not to get emotionally attached to any one investment.  

Was last year abnormal or you think the normMy guess is you will spend a lot more than $200k on an attorney with benefits etc. but if it cuts down in expenses it definitely is something I would consider and even if it costs a little more, having control with having someone in house does reduce unknown costs and risks. 

This implies residential units can be built at lower costs and provide better return. 11) adding an ADU to SFH can make the SFH fall under rent control.
