To address this maintenance issue, I sent out a reputed garage door company to look at it. 

We just don't want our clients to face issues if they were ever audited and I'm giving you the same advice! 

Doing the due diligence on rental rates wont be an issue for me but I’m not a developer.

I believe the neighbor has some beef with the city, and is trying to use this issue to create a problem for the city, my friend is just the unlucky guy who gets to be collateral damage.The small town utility department doesn't have record drawings of the laterals, and they are not being too helpful. 

If there's ANY concern about the foundation or structural integrity, I call in a foundation pro, or I walk (foundation/structural issues are usually my one total deal-breaker).

Rent Control is a two sided issue.

I have no issue with cold calling either.

I spoke directly with Drew Sygit - the founder of LogicalPM and we spent a good portion of 60-90 minutes chatting about the current portfolio, the issues I've faced, and how his company plans to solve it. 

I provide my clients only the number of stamped plans they need (as dictated by the town issuing the building permit) to get one building permit.

The ADU is being promoted heavily these days because it helped government on housing (while they're the one that's causing housing shortage issue at beginning) and at the tail end, they would raise the tax for ADU.So.. if you build ADU, is the house gonna sell more or not ?
