As one means to try and add to units to the housing market the State of CA now allows for "Accessory Dwelling Units" (ADU's) in many places.An ADU is a secondary dwelling unit with complete independent living facilities for one or more personsand generally takes three forms: Detached: The unit is separated from the primary structure Attached: The unit is attached to the primary structure Repurposed Existing Space: Space (e.g., master bedroom) within the primary residence isconverted into an independent living unit Junior Accessory Dwelling Units: Similar to re-purposed space with various streamlining measuresThe rules around ADU's can vary from city to city but in general ADU's are allowed in many zoning districts that are zoned single-family; they are often exempt from many Planning Dept requirements for parking, open space, etc; they often have a streamlined permitting process and typically cost less than building new rent-able square footage.I am interested in getting involved in this type of investing/improvements and would very much like to connect with others who are as well.

Sanitary facilities and a safe method of sewage disposal.

Good stuff Dion.Think of comingling funds as a cook making stew.

For only three units, the payback would take a very long time, but if you have a decent, and appealing, location for the laundry facility, a good set of Maytag equipment should be generally maintenance free with such low usage.

My intention is to develop a storage facility.

@Josh Cook thanks for posting.

Looking into my crystal ball, it seems likely government assisted housing increases over time: college expenses & student debt keeps rising, new grads have a harder time finding jobs, millennials have been told to not expect Social Security to be around when they need it, and people are living longer (assisted living costs are chewing through retirees savings quickly).Sidebar on Section 8 Seniors: Nursing Homes and Assisted Living facilities that accept Section 8 are rare and sub-standard in my area. 

Stop eating out or taking in - try cooking. 

Oh and some sort of cooking spray.
