I suggest working with a credit repair specialist to boost your credit score before trying to refinance into a long-term debt solution because it'll greatly affect your rate!

While I haven't built any ADUs personally, I've done some digging and chatted with a few investors who've gone down that path.ADUs can definitely be a valuable addition to your properties and help boost cash flow.

BOOSTLY does a great job!

Prices are down here YOY, so unless you dramatically improved the property, by adding new bedrooms for example, then you're unlikely to sell it for more than you bought it for right now. 

We're also looking at Boostly, which is more expensive but also more feature-rich and we own it.The thing that has always kept me from doing it is the cost of replicating what you get from Airbnb for your 3%: payment processing (that'll cost you 3% alone), a massive marketing engine (what will it cost you in time/money to drive thousands of monthly views to your site?)

There's a dramatic difference between what people want to sell their duplexes for and what people will buy them for right now in my opinion.

Based on my understanding the kitchen is in fair condition and unit can be rented as is but if you upgrade it as you stated for $7,500 then rent will only boost by $50-$75 a month……or increase sale value of up to $10K – which is basically what you are investing financially and from a time angle….So there’s see 3 options at play from my viewpoint:1) Leave as is if everything is working fine and maybe do minor changes where applicable if people are still renting it like based on what you see around your area…”if it aint broke, don’t fix it”…2) Do a bit of TLC - paint existing cabinets, change handles, depending on the condition of the counter top either keep it or replace it, maybe a back-splash and only change appliances if required but I wouldn’t go for high-end stainless steel.

You can always conduct the reno later when you plan to sell the property or want an even larger boost in rental rate.

Three of the six units are operating as furnished units with opportunity to convert the remaining three units in order to dramatically increase revenue.

The city is still quite spotty and changes dramatically block to block.
