Pros and cons to buying Mother-in-law Rental

[Matthew Kimball]

I was curious if anyone has had issues owning a rental property that has a mother-in-law unit in the basement. with not having sufficient parking or the neighbors calling the city to say there were multiple renters.  Since in most cities it's illegal to rent the top and bottom with it being zoned residential.  I am worried if I buy a house that has 2 separate entrances top and bottom that neighbors will call the city since parking is tight and then ill be stuck with a rental that can't pay for itself.  Any way just curious your thoughts on Single family home that has an up and down to rent if it's worth it and the pros and cons?  Thanks
