The zoning will define the permitted uses (this will tell you if you can have an RV/Boat storage there) and it will define the density (this will tell you how many tiny homes you can add).You'll want to make sure you don't conflict the existing duplex to a new use or mixed use where you might put the existing use out of compliance. 

I recently completed an attached ADU Gardena, CA and received my certificate of occupancy by the city.

To me that means an account owned by a trust and that would be an unusual account in which to hold security deposits.When I had a SF property manager, they typically held the security deposits. 

I am trying to remove an existing window from a 2nd story. 

However, there might be prepayment penalties when using a DSCR loan making a cash out refi not an option. 

We buy a lot of non performing loans.I suggest to newcomers that they invest with an experienced flipper, fix and flipper, do at least 3 deals and understand the terminology and the way business is done before you venture out.we only accept accredited investors that are highly sophisticated

Along with this, a great buyer's agent knows the market and knows how to write an offer.

I work on the Story team and am happy to answer any questions or provide a live demo.Feel free to send me an IM or ask here.

Yesterday I attended a meeting of Connecticut Real Estate Investor Association and it felt like it was primarily occupied by people who knew little about real estate and wanted to be spoonfed information by an expensive coaches?

What you pay with labor will depend on if for instance one of my units still has a good pad and tack and strip then I just pay for carpet and installation cost.What you will pay will also depend on how much you are installing at one time.I don't like Berber for rentals.The design of the loop once it starts unraveling it can unwind pretty good an dis harder to get certain stains and pet stuff out of it.With carpet you want a Nylon carpet even if the cheaper version.Some carpet guys will try to sell you the rubber composite carpet stuff which is the really cheap stuff so it will stand up to tenant abuse.The problem is it can only be cleaned usually up to one time and then you need to replace it again.So I would rather get a cheaper nylon that can be re-cleaned many times over after installation for an additional .10 to .15 a sq ft extra than the super cheap stuff I will have to replace again.If you get 1 sq ft for carpet,pad,tack and strip,and labor install and it is Nylon you are getting one heck of a deal.Even at a carpet place usually you are at .40 to .50 for the pad and .50 to .60 for a cheap carpet.Then you have to do material to install and labor.I have seen sometimes if you have to do a small area you can pick up quality remnant pieces for real cheap and hit that type of number or buy in bulk.
