It is zoned single family but since the previous owner is using it as a rooming house a few things look different that I am worried about the appraiser not passing:Outside doors for each room with locks.The only common area is the kitchen, no dining room, living room, etc.The rooms consist of 5 bedrooms, 1 kitchen, and 2 bathrooms.Each room has a bed and a small drawer which I am thinking of diassembling before the appraiser comes.Would I have a problem with this?

I have a 3 bedroom 2.5 bath and was thinking of rooming 2 together since I know a private bathroom is a must when rooming with a stranger. 

* How many bedrooms per units?

The kitchen, living room, and bedroom are one room, the laundry and bathroom are together.

I can't remember the cost, not too bad, but no phone callsI sent out 1,000 mailers (letters) I designed in envelopes a week for a couple of years and made a ton of money buying properties using "creative finance" some call subto.

It's a VA loan, so long as someone can meet the requirements.I have it as a subject to, subto, so it can be done with creative financing too. 

I'm working on a creative finance deal with a 50/50 subto/seller finance deal.

The findings are particularly interesting for those focused on the Columbus, Ohio market, which topped the list for both two-bedroom and three-bedroom rental searches.The report also notes a shift towards more apartment searches, influenced by the scarcity of single-family homes and rising interest rates.

I probably can get 1500-1800 per month rent for a 3 bedroom, 2 bath (appx 1200 square feet) and can build for 174,500.

They are getting creative with their deals.
