The inside is about 8' wide so they would be placed width wise and have about 2' for storage at the end.

We're converting a storage closet into a 3/4 bathroom and turning a sunroom and nook into 2 additional bedrooms.The appraiser says the extra bathroom will add value to the appraisal but he won't add value for the 2 new bedrooms because he compares houses of equal square footage and not by the number of bedrooms.Is this method the industry standard or do appraisers in other cities make adjustments for additional bedrooms?

It does need some work but is structurally sound with enough room for 200 storage units in a city that is severely undeserved.

For example in apartments you would say no storage in common areas, you might need to be a little more specific in a shared house.

But some work requires specialists: adding timbers to the garage to increase its load bearing capacity so that it can become a practical storage area, possibly converting the building from fuel oil to natural gas, etc.I'm looking for someone who can help me manage this process and get the right contractors for each task.

They are taking them through different life experiences such as renting a storage unit. 

Can you zone it for storage?

As a rental, doing anything with the basement other than possibly having it available for storage woudl be money you will not get back (use the BP calculator for rentals).
