A family of four in a two-bed unit isn't too many, but the excess furnishings may be a sign of trouble.

Acquire properties in trouble at a reduced price, make repairs, rent them out, and then refinance to extract equity for the following venture.3.

If something is happening with one house, the other is also in trouble.

Curbs, gutters, utilities temporary and permanent, architect plans specs, planning dept asks for changes adding fees, fencing to keep out the stealers, temporary porta potty, and then in a year you get the okay to start.

It's not all that much trouble.

So, most of you really know very little beyond the front door so to speak, yet you insist on getting outside your area of investing......just saying, investors need to stay on their side of the fence until they know what they can do with a particular appraiser...that's all I'm saying.

having trouble getting a home equity loan due to my work situation. 

The first opportunity we had to meet our fence neighbors, we told them we were trying to provide good homes for hospital workers, and they liked what they heard.

My trouble has often been my short attention span and SOS (shiny object syndrome). 

I've worked with investors who exclusively work with rent-by-rooms and while I can't speak to any legal troubles that have come up I can certainly say that location is going to play a large factor in the occupancy.
