You do not want to get tangled up in a discrimination suit because you turned down George who brought a dog into the unit and produced a certificate from some online sight that says the Saint Bernard he has in the apartment makes him feels secure during rainstorms and full moons and this keeps him from having nervous seizures.

I brought this to the attention of my lender, as I could have sworn that I had shared my plan to rent out rooms from the very beginning!

I assume the value is that you brought the deal, but even that is not worth 50% of the profit.

I would think a remodel will happen and be completed long before an ADU is completed unless you have a small manufactured home brought in.

I wouldn't say the internet brought them more to light; it accelerated their spread, and that's what's brought them more to light. 

The vision you initially had for your property was unrealistic for a rental property and you will not do that again.Rental properties need to be brought to a basic standard of living, spruced up fresh and pass inspection.

Instead of renting it again we decided to sell it and brought in a couple real estate people to get some ideas and it wasn’t great for they told us that our home had been vandalized and needed plenty of fixing which we already knew.

It was actually brought to us at a multi-family convention here in Detroit.   

He brought up the topic of lawsuits surrounding apartment buyers/sellers.I asked him, "what is the basis behind some of these lawsuits?"

Since this is being brought up in the news, I have to wonder how runaway AKA hyperinflation might influence real estate investing?
