We're looking to invest in garages and doing short sales now :) Different than the first goal, but as you said, just do it!

We have a chance to purchase a 10 car garage unit.

As modern as Dubai is, even culturally (Compare to its neighbors) It is still very conservative state by western standards.

There is room for a garage in the basement which I was going to add to the over all rehab cost.

He estimated EVERYTHING at $125k to modernize it.The reason is because of the old plaster walls and knob and tube.

The most important questions to ask if it’s not in their posting are: # of bedrooms, bathrooms, garage, brick, yearly taxes and how much it will take to get it in move in condition.

I heard that if a house is listed in the county appraiser website as a 2/1 (for example), but someone did an unpermitted "garage to a bedroom" conversion to make it a 3/1, that when you eventually sell the house the agent is required to still list it on the MLS as a 2/1.

I've read that some counties or areas have a code requirement that the garage door (leading into the house) be the kind that swings shut automatically, in case someone leaves the keys in the car ignition with the car running by accident and carbon monoxide fills the house.

What I don't get is our lender is the one who does the appraisel on it and I can't believe it won't appraise for that.Its almost 2000 sqft 4 bedroom 2 full bath 3 car garage and only need scarpet and paint cleaning and thats pretty much it.

My neighbors home to my right was broken into while he was on vacation and they stole his Durango that was in the garage.
