I continue to affirm that no agreement between me and estate legal exist, as there was no meeting of the minds, which is required for a legal contract inder NC State Law.I furthermore had rescinded my offer to enter into said contract with them due to this lack of the meeting of the minds.I continue to request a full refund. 

This is a classic assumption.The third option exists due to the fact that assumptions are very rare these days.

It may be best to partner with someone that has done one before or somehow is a local expert on lot splits.If you can add a bathroom into existing space on high cost property it can add a lot of value.  

Don't get me wrong, these types exist, but they don't last LOL. 

Even if you manage to find an office with an existing tenant, their lease could be approaching expiration, and without plans to renew, it can take an incredibly long time to secure a new tenant for the space.

Problem is it doesn’t exist as a “public” offering.  

Also, nightly stays should be adjusted based on your specific pricing strategy as well (e.g. longer stays further out, shorter as dates get closer or gaps exist).

Similarly, looking up deeds of trust, licenses, or other public loan documents, as is often recommended here, will only confirm that the company exists - not that you are speaking to a legitimate representative.

Luckily for me the state of Florida has state level protection which bars municipalities from passing new or amending their existing laws.That said, I am seeing cities like City of Saint Pete crack down and are enforcing their laws for the first time in years.  

Being new I would suggest started with existing builds but building small multifamily in a small town with a rental shortage could be a smart move (someone's gotta do it).
