Your going to be disrupted anyway so make it as smooth as possible.  

Like a couple hundred dollar security deposit refund dispute, this $40 or $80 a month is not worth the indigestion to me.Deposit disputes and nickel and dime early rent raises disrupt my nap schedule. 

All of this to say: It seems that the relatively low rent that I charge can be a bargaining chip in my favor in case tenant protests the "demotion" of his own living situation that an ADU would bring (noisy/disruptive construction, the loss of the use of the garage, and ultimately another tenant sharing the property).

Why the negativity I just got a quote from open door and it was very professional with excellent comps well presented the bottom line it came out to about $5000 less then marketplace value as compared to a realtor I could see them being a disruptive force in the marketplace

I wouldn't worry too much about any further "disruption" from me in that regard.
