It’s a bit of a fixer upper, but in a great location. 

We bought a home 6 years ago to fix up. Life happened and now 6 years later, we need to do something about it. It's our primary residence. It's a 1972 ranch with a superb location with elevation and views of almost th...

Use the search feature (magnifying glass, upper right) and search for "tenant occupied property" or "tenant occupied rental" to find a ton of discussions.You need to know what you are doing.

Not 1 time has a standard rental poo-decorated a unit, not 1 time have I had dead bodies at a standard rental. 

The property features two 1,400 sq ft suites on the main level (one currently leased) and over 3,000 sq ft on the upper level, with 750 sq ft already occupied, 3 small office spaces (+/- 250 sq ft each), and a basement tenant with 1,400 sq ft of storage space.The building generates $6,000 in monthly gross income from its five tenants, but with full occupancy and market-rate rents, it has the potential to bring in $10,000+ per month.Given its historical significance, stunning architectural details, and location, I’m curious about your opinion: Would this property be more marketable for sale with or without the current tenants?

I believe it still would be.Finding properties that meet the ADU requirements can be hard, as they occur more in the upper price points.

I don't have a problem with reasonable protections for tenants from slumlords but those should always be arbitrated by either a court, or maybe an extrajudicial body to free up the courts and hear issues. 

I feel the Bowie/Upper Marlboro area offer great value for flipping and/or rentals because the costs are lower yet you can sell to the DC buyer.  

Expensive and waste to replace all since upper cabinets are all good, having all cabinets painted would cost $1500 - also not cheap, the paint may get chipped easily.  7.
