No modifications, no working something out, no discussion.My example about the sewer link is a real situation that occurred with one of my rentals last summer.

Based on the zip code, some of the other things you mentioned seeing on ZIMAS don't actually impact what you can develop -- the "ZI-2462 Modifications to SF Zones and SF Zone Hillside Area Regulations" only applies to Hillside Areas (which you aren't in); the "ZI-2452 Transit Priority Area in the City of Los Angeles" doesn't really apply since there wouldn't necessarily be a CEQA evaluation of your project; AB 2334 doesn't apply because you aren't building 100% affordable parking.R1 lots have a few basic development options: SB9, or add ADUsSB9You can find a ton of great SB9-related information on https://www.myhomestead.com/le... -- if you dig a little, you can find info that's specific to LA City as well: https://www.myhomestead.com/sb...Your specific SB9 strategy will depend both on how the house currently sits on the property, and what your development goals are.

Some of these will be able to do loan modification, and many more will be able to sell because of low inventory and high demand.

If it truly is an ESA, then make sure you do your research on it before you respond.Since your tenant is asking for a modification to the the existing lease (adding an occupant), I think you'd be able to deny that modification if you'd like and they would be bound by your current agreement until expiration. 

My attorney says don't sign unless they make his suggested modifications.

Has 85K remainder left on this house (this does not include 48K -Hud Partical Clear Amount+Partial Claim Amount due to laon modification 4 years ago, house almost went into foreclosure but I was able to bring it back on track.

I worked as maintenance for awhile and I love doing home modifications stuff such as flooring, plumbing sometimes and I enjoying it.I started educating myself for RE for almost 2 years.

I had some up and downs were I had to do loan modifications and the worst of all I had to file for Chapter 13 to keep my Home.

I could hire out structural modifications to add needed egress windows and strengthen the shear walls and rough in the breaker panel,  then frame the place myself, pay somebody to drywall it,  then install the kitchen and bath stuff and probably have a unit ready to go for someplace around $50K.   

But as it has been explained to me, should something happen on the property, because of all the un inspected modifications, I would be on the hook.
