There is this residential property with 5 acres in Illinois.

I have a double units residential/commercial duo zoned building, and I have 100% equity on the property.

Dear BP - I am looking for guidance on redeveloping a property in Linden, NJ. I want to raze the existing structure, subdivide the property into 2, and build a new duplex, which has been done to numerous properties i...

Several other properties with this exact layout and in the same zone have the property type: RESIDENTIAL-DUPLEXSo I guess my question is this:  If I were to go through the trouble of putting in a new and separate heating and cooling unit for this property as well as adding a new power meter for the basement unit, how hard would it be to get this property labeled as a Duplex from a Single Family?  

I'm estimating blinds would cost $500 - $700 and while they might enhance the apartment, it's also one more thing that will break. 

I know next to nothing about residential building construction, but I bought this place as-is with no inspection contingency.2.

(It's also possible that because your loan amount is going to be so high, the 28K still fits within the allowance; I don't deal with regular residential mortgages enough to know the exact allowed percentages right now but I know it frequently comes up as an issue.)My other major question/concern would be whether it's actually a legal 4-unit property, particularly regarding the basement unit you mentioned.

The issue is that most loan products offered on residential homes don’t care about cash flow.
