I specialize in building and flipping properties, focusing on transforming houses into beautiful, functional spaces that create value for buyers and investors alike.With several years of experience in real estate, I’ve developed a strong foundation in market analysis, design, and project management.

Most will also sell to public if you have the storage space and want to save money in the long run.

This amounts to lost opportunity because if you had purchased RE, at the closing it can start producing return. 5) ADUs detract from the existing structure whether this is privacy, a garage, or just yard space. 6) this is related to number 1, but there are many more buyers looking to purchase homes for their family than there are RE investors looking to purchase small unit count properties.

Your mind is in the right value add space but this isnt a deal. 

We were able to create a great coworking lounge as well as build out a great entertaining space on the rooftop for stargazing, yoga, movie nights, dancing, great food, drinks and ocean and city views.It was in decent condition, just a lot of deferred maintenance, Has appreciated.

Just some observations as I don't work in this space.

Newer appliances, free nice laundry, 2nd floor, yard space, storage, clean bathroom, included heat, installed window A/C.Appraisal suggested the unit was worth 2,300 a month, which I felt was a bit high, so I listed it for $2,150 with no move in fee and a 2k deposit.

Highlight nearby conveniences and any neighborhood growth to attract interest.Focus on framing the size as a bonus that buyers get more space and value for their money compared to smaller homes.

Value adds that could bring up cashflow/value:- renovating units to bring rent up to 6-7k/month - ability to rent out parking space on the property as lot is large - trailers, parking, RVs etc - about 1-2k/month cashflow. - property had TDR trasnferable development rights and can be built 5 stories on it.

For LA, I think you want to get the max bedrooms that you can given the space because the rents are going to be pretty juicy if done right.
