An in-law apartment is a small apartment installed in extra space in a private residence that allows an elderly relative to live with family but with some independence and privacy. Before building such a space, local building and zoning requirements must be checked. There may be restrictions against fully appointed kitchens due to fire hazard or requiring the tenant to be a relative. Adding an in-law apartment may increase your taxes, decrease the value of your home, or be illegal in some areas. Check with your town municipal offices and a realtor for more information for your particular area. A duplex is dwelling with two fully appointed apartments. One unit may be slightly larger if the dwelling was built for owner occupation. The units are not affected by the restrictions that may affect in-law apartments.

How much does a 2 bed apartment cost per month?

That will depend on many factors: what city, what area of the city, type of building, size of apartment, condition, what's included, etc. The difference between a luxury spread in the best part of a major city and a tiny mother-in-law pad over the garage in a small Midwestern town could be the difference between $5000 a month and $50. Yet they might both be called a "two-bedroom apartment."


If a search warrant is issued for a duplex do law enforcement agents have to enter both apartments?

Duplexes have different addresses, therefore the agents would only enter the area that was designated in the warrant. If the warrant said duplex apartment "A" and "B" they would search both. If it only named one apartment they would only be able to search that one unless there was just cause to enter the other area. If it did not specify either one but simply the address, it might not be a valid warrant regardless if both or only one apartment were searched. The legality of such a warrant is determined by several factors, state and/or federal law, the circumstances and of course the judge's ruling, if it came to that.
