I have both newer and older construction properties and I can personally tell you that the older the property the more expensive it’s going to be to maintain.

Once the construction was complete, we would want to either sell or refinance and take the cash on to build a dream home elsewhere.Comparable sales prices would be in the $450K to $550K range. 

@Bee Starks it is really hard to say without a lot more information, but I would say that construction costs are super high right now.

If anyone has a referral for a contractor capable of constructing and even planning/designing  ADU's or additions please share.  

It can be a big undertaking--Unless you are rather experienced with this type of damage, it may be hard for your to tell the extent of damage. 

I work in the electrical construction field and we have to cross the private side of the sewer lines about 50% of the time for underground electrical service.

There are three common ways, one is to do it strictly on an hourly bases, another is lump sum (usually based on their in-house calculations on who needs to work on it and how many hours they think it will take to complete) and lastly they could do it as a percentage of construction cost (usually in the 5-10% range, could be more).  

Does anyone have experience building cabins for STR purposes in SoCal? Thinking idyllwild. Any direction will help. Thanks!

Purchase price: $365,000 Cash invested: $92,000 First STR under construction and will open in November 2021.

I also learned to understand how to grandfather out of date construction and learned the importance between making profitable repairs.
