Splitting a SFH into a MFH
Hi all,
I'm wondering if anyone has a rule of thumb cost for splitting a SFH into a MFH under the following assumptions:
- Splitting Power/Gas between the two new units where the circuits for the home don't need to be rearranged, just separately metered.
- No major floorplan changes (ie legal external doors exist for both units) other than converting 1-3 doors or archways into walls between the new units.
- No work done to the Water/Sewer for separate metering. Leaving that as a landlord paid utility.
- Average legal/city filing costs for splitting a home (if any?)
Mostly, I'm curious if this is usually an economical option to convert the large stock of SFH to MFH locally, rather than competing for MFH properties. I see a decent amount of evidence that its been done in town before, so someone must have thought so! Thanks!
