Storage areas can include built-in cabinets, closets, attic space, and even outdoor sheds, etc.Laundry: Including a laundry area and machines is a big bonus for tenants, as they compare that with apartment living where they would have to use common laundry machines that require payment.HVAC: Make sure to include an effective dual heating & air-conditioning system to service the ADU, so your tenant is comfortable in the unit.Kitchen island: It may be difficult to squeeze in a kitchen island in a small ADU, but it’s a big bonus if you can make the space.

It is designed as a temporary. 

This is the average scenario which happens to perfectly line up with my own experience:Walk out the kitchen door and up the driveway to the mailbox. 

also, how much should I look into if I were to build a studio with a small kitchen and bathroom in the unit?

That goes for the new computer at the office, the new Traeger grill for home, or the kitchen cabinets for our flip.

For example the house has a section that used to be a sunroom or screen porch and was added many years ago as part of the house and somehow none of this work was done with papers, also the basement was finished with a bathroom, kitchen and non-compliant bedroom but the entire basement is around 6’8” instead of 7” (minimum per code) so inspector is saying that the entire basement was not suppose to be finished and it sounds like he wants it all removed or to apply for a variance that he is letting me know upfront most likely wont be approved.

This means deals are designed around the specific micro-market the property is in, the strategy used on that property that delivers the specific financial cost/returns to the REI required by their individual REI Plan.IF you want to make deals, you need to know as many strategies as you can learn, learn how to analyze markets, and learn how to design, and stick to, a REI Plan based on your financial goals...and these goals are specific. 

I really wish more people would incorporate universal access design into their renovations, this shouldn't still be an issue in 2021

For another tenant pool, it might be granite kitchen counters.

3) Does anyone have any recommendations for General Contractors or not insanely priced Design Build Firms that have worked with multiple 203k loans in the past within the Manassas/Northern Virginia area?
