Single Family w/ basement apartment

[Ian K.]

Hey,

I'm contemplating a property that has a two bedroom basement apartment. It is a SFH.

I wonder what are the potential issues aside from difficulty renting that might arise from having a basement apartment on a property zoned SFH?

Would a lender include the rent coming from the basement as income if I have two years of landlord experience? 

Also, this property is on a busy street but in a very desirable part of town.  I would love thoughts on this.

I would plan on living in the main part of the house which is a 3/2.  Sort of separate entrances as you must enter into the property and then there are two doors going either way once you are in.  

Thanks for your time and comments.
