We are back and forth on our decision on whether to make the new bathroom a two piece or a full three piece because the bathroom is very small with a sloped ceiling.Adding a three piece bath would increase our monthly rent and increase our homes appraisal however with limited space, we are concerned that potential buyers and tenants would be turned off by this three piece addition.If we decide to add a three piece bath, the shower would be 30" and the vanity would be a small space saver one with the toilet on the sloped ceiling wall.In your experience, would you do a two piece or three piece bathroom?

One guy I know who runs his business in retail space and rents 4 1 bedrooms above in a building he owns has only had 1 tenant pay the past few months.

There is only one viable idea I have come up with so far and that is to add an extra little closet in the living space, next to where the washer and dryer are housed.

To answer your question on the market in 2015-2017 decline (really late 2015 to mid-2016 based on operating rigs), there was indeed a sharp decline in rents and occupancy (a potential positive for SS when people move into smaller places and need storage space).
