Hey Jason,I'm a real estate broker specializing in multi family property and also an investor. 

Any investor or developer buy raw land lot (zoning code G) and go through the process with the city to convert to commercial use?

I wish you the best in your investing journey and this forum is chock full of very experienced and talented investors and realtorsDoes this helphttps://docs.google.com/document/d/1N-eMKaHkPJquU9r1jfrA-ZTk...

A new ADU will cost over 120k to build and will not be appraised close to that from my experience and many other investors I’ve spoken with.

My wife and I are new investors transitioning into Commercial Real Estate, with a focus on multifamily properties.

There is risk in both options & as an investor you need to weigh those risks & stand firm on whatever you decide. 

This allows new investors to gain experience while minimizing risk and maximizing returns right from the start. 

As an investor and realtor I took the opposite approach.

Take successful investors out to breakfast.

He has stated clearly to me that he does not desire to be a RE investor.
