We’ve used local hand soap, cheeses, chocolate, small bottles of wine.

The first 3 years, I rented the majority of the long weekends out and had about 50% occupancy, so I was able to use the cottage the rest of the time while getting it ready to rent.

I will mention that the front unit is only a one bedroom cottage - it is a large one bedroom with a ton of character and some desirable features so while I do think we can get more for it, I'm not sure we could cover our costs with that unit alone.  

I look forward to speaking more specifically when i finally get cheese land. for the mean time I will learn for the locals here in the common wealth.

There is the whole nursing home, 8 cottages that bring in about $5,000/month right now and a whole separate building that used to be a dentist office.

It also lists all our properties for us on Zillow, apartments.com, realtor.com etc I am very strict with the application process and do not even arrange to show them the property unless they qualify, and in fact we have 2 tenants at other properties at Cottages on the Greene in 2 year leases.

Man does not live by government cheese alone.You need to sit down with your tenant and explain your safety concerns.
