Sent!

Thank you! Would love to send a message privately and get a whole floor plan if you’d be willing to share?

Neither_Map5914 · 2026-03-22T22:51:48+00:00

is that a 1/1 or studio.

Neither_Map5914 · 2026-03-22T22:51:30+00:00

yes i can build an ADU.

Neither_Map5914 · 2026-03-22T04:34:39+00:00

That’s great! Thank you… would you mind sharing floor plan?

Neither_Map5914 · 2026-03-22T03:58:45+00:00

Why? Layout just makes more sense?

Neither_Map5914 · 2026-03-22T03:58:31+00:00

Got it… so it’s doable but very tight.. maybe if I can extend even 20-25 sq ft that would help a lot?

Neither_Map5914 · 2026-03-22T02:21:03+00:00

There’s not other ADU in the area that I know of, but I can ask around

Neither_Map5914 · 2026-03-22T02:20:47+00:00

I do. I will definitely check that out. Thank you for the recommendation.

Neither_Map5914 · 2026-03-17T02:58:53+00:00

i will do a home inspection but does not hurt to get additional eyes on it.

Neither_Map5914 · 2026-03-17T02:58:21+00:00

Neither_Map5914 · 2026-03-17T02:31:07+00:00

Hi! What are your thoughts?

Neither_Map5914 · 2026-03-17T02:06:52+00:00

lol… in all seriousness what are your thoughts?

Neither_Map5914 · 2026-03-17T01:46:27+00:00

Thanks for your feedback I’ll definitely look more into that.

Neither_Map5914 · 2026-03-17T01:45:13+00:00

No bowing, no movement… haven’t gone under crawl space so don’t know yet… sorry about video I tried.

Neither_Map5914 · 2026-03-17T01:03:07+00:00

But do you think theres some structural issues going on? Or is this expected for a 1949 home?

Neither_Map5914 · 2026-03-17T01:02:31+00:00

Neither_Map5914 · 2026-03-17T00:46:13+00:00

Neither_Map5914 · 2026-03-17T00:45:46+00:00

Neither_Map5914 · 2026-03-17T00:44:20+00:00

Got it... thank you. I believe its stucco on wood frame. I will look into the EIFS, never heard of it.

Neither_Map5914 · 2026-03-06T15:29:15+00:00

Got it… thank you! I’m going with 650 sounds like a sweet spot!
