I am hoping for concrete answers if anyone has them. 

Hi JT, hope this helps.Per Assembly Bill No. 68 (AB-68):"If there is an existing primary dwelling, the total floor area of an attached accessory dwelling unit shall not exceed 50 percent of the existing primary dwelling." 

Open floor plan on the main level with living room, dining area, and kitchen with an overhanging countertop for extra seating.

We think we’ll live here 1-5 years before buying our forever home.I’m open to alternative scenarios I haven’t thought of.If you plan to buy down you can get a floor rate of 5.00% I have the perfect lender for you. 

For example a newer build will have copper or pex pipes, PVC drains, insulation, poured concrete basements or foundations (no block walls), and three-wire electrical. 

You say the people advertising are wholesalers; if so they would be flipping or selling it for as much as they could get, not this huge a discount.I sold a high rise condo I owned in Phoenix last year for $260,000, while the same layout the floor above sold for $310k.

After an inspection we replaced the roof, downstairs flooring, upgraded electrical and plumbing, painted kitchen cabinets, glazed kitchen counter and bathroom shower tile, cleaned the remaining carpet, and painted the entire house.

I used the comps from the appraisal and I'm nicer then then the 700 place and if I put in new flooring about $2000 I would match the 908 units in the area my sample size is 4 propertys.

I have 4 bedrooms, 4 baths, and 4 kitchens to remodel and the floors and walls must also be painted and re done. 

Need to remodel 4 bathrooms, 4 kitchens, and paint all the walls and do the floors.
