- Kitchenette versus full kitchen โ the single biggest lever on cost and permit complexity
- Whether the kitchen is part of a legal second unit, which brings the whole apartment code package with it
- Electrical panel capacity โ a range and dishwasher may ask more of an older panel than it has to give
