These type of regulations dont just change out of the goodness of their hearts....someone is looking for a way to make more $$.In my experience most people looking to add an ADU are looking for a way to add income or equity to their property and the average joe isnt going to get the government to allow him to do that if its been prohibited before.

Some of these things are messier than others - where do my rights begin and yours end when it comes to firearms, speech, access to necessities of life, etc - and some are more clear cut  - prohibitions against murder, robbery, etc - but that's the primary function of government.

I always make mine assigbable but I close on them.All contracts are assignable unless said contract specifically prohibits an assignment.

I am trying to use a large conventional lender because of the 30 year fixed rates they are offering, but don't think I will be able to come up with the entire down payment, closing and reserve without borrowing a small sum of money (which they prohibit).

It's not practical to say "I replace everything" because it is cost prohibitive.
