All from being added to my cards.  

Of course, adding value to others is important as well but with your experience & vision, you can add value to a lot of people.

I have been spending my time analyzing every promising property I can find on the various MLS window sites (Realtor, Zillow, etc) as well as Craigslist and local ads.

It's a D class neighborhood.

There is a reasonable chance that you could be required to convert it back to a 2 bedroom, so you would have paid for the extra square footage I would expect to pay for the original square footage and have the price discounted from that for the extra hassle and risk of dealing with the code enforcement officer 

I may be adding a shower to a 1.5 bath unit, so I would only need the SaniShower.

If your agent isn’t putting money into ads, isn’t posting it on Craigslist, etc, you need a new agent!

We have 2 br condo builders here in Silicon Valley do not even provide a.c. for condo at 1.8M, 1.7M 3 br, 2 bath 1400sf with no balcony or ac(extra) under high voltage power tower.

Removing the house is a small added expense.  

Section 8 is a great way to earn extra cash flow, and as previously mentioned in lean times, that is great.
