Additional Considerations: Costs & Market Changes•Ongoing Maintenance & Housekeeping: STRs require regular deep cleaning, restocking of supplies, and maintenance.

I recently completed one on a multifamily property and found it to be a cost-effective approach.That said, there are a couple of additional factors to consider beyond the code differences between a garage conversion and new construction:Coastal Overlay Zones – If your property is in a coastal overlay, building a ground-up ADU may require Coastal Commission review, which can add time and complexity to the process.

Unless you suddenly become a stellar STR Host and property (requiring additional spending), why not sell and make some better financial decisions....

I do have additional coverage for the sewer since I knew it may have issues before I bought the property.
