[Just Sold]

For converting to a 2 family there are options. With the whole building & real estate market in the ...... there are quite a few builders and many trades people dying for some work. My son just hired an out of work union carpenter do some work for him on a house he and his wife just bought. Cheap labor because they need the money. So converting may cost some $$ but it may be much less than you might expect. The materials is another question as I do not think that has dropped in price yet.
Of course my son also got me into the deal to do some of the tile work and experience advice on the rehab of this "Jack The Home Owner Did It" property which saved him a lot.
