It called a utility easement.

We purchased these properties over 10 years ago, so we would like to avoid a major tax hit by utilizing a 1031 if possible. 

The lease is full NNN, so utilities and maintenance/repairs within the suite are on the tenant.

Mine would.say if less than 500 worth of stuff (yard sale proces) then I can the property back.My next trick if needed is to call code enforcement and have them put up a 24 hour notice to vacate as property is not habitable without utilities. 

Had utility company add a gas meter then had my plumber add in a water heater so I could split gas and bill to tenant.

Also, we utilized a service for radon mitigation and the service was excellent.

I prepared a draft purchase agreement that includes the following sections: property info, sales price, closing info and earnest money deposit, home inspection contingency, prorations of taxes and rent, risk of loss for damage during sale, possession when title transfers, closing contingent on clear title and no unpaid taxes or utilities, property sold "as-is," and transfer of rental documents and security deposit.  2.

I co-borrowed on a house with my dad to buy his first home utilizing an FHA loan and now would like to buy my house.

I would suggest the expenses of operating an ADU are reasonably minimal, so let’s assume they are 15% of annual revenue (and tenant pays their own utilities).$1,500/month x 12 months = $18,000 annual ADU rental income$18,000 income – $2,700 expenses = $15,300 net annual revenue$15,300 net revenue / $100,000 investment = 15.3% annual return Two Bedroom (700sf)Lets assume the total cost of this unit is $225,000 ($321/sf) and the rent we can achieve for this nice, new 2 bedroom ADU is $3,000 per month.

You should make sure that probate is up to date on the utilities when you close for the house.
