When he saw a unit that was what he wanted (first floor cottage style condo unit in a complex of four-plexes with only one cottage style unit per four-plex), he quickly made a full-price offer.Nobody else made an offer.  

I never paid my rent late and never asked for a favor from my landlord, to allow me to pay my rent late.When she pays the rent late because she buys her kids birthday presents - it's really you buying the presents for the kids.When a tenant doesn't pay rent, you are the one paying for whatever it is they chose to spend their money on instead of rent.And don't assume they're scrimping on macaroni and cheese or buying a funky old car.  

Advertised a property as "Garden Dream Cottage" in a quiet neighborhood with a large fenced yard, enclosed vegetable garden bed, 7 fruit trees, lavender hedge, flower beds surrounding the house and 12 rose bushes.

Then, you can have another type that can be attached or separate and they call that one a cottage (I'm not really clear on the difference between these two types), but that one can't have a separate meter - but doesn't require an additional parking space. 

Into eating cheese? 

Fresh corn on the cobb in the corn trucks.. going to the farms and buying fresh cheese and meats etc.

I have lived in a primary single family residence in Mansfield for 19 years, owned a lakefront cottage in New Hampshire for a couple of years (back in the late 2000s) that I rented out as a weekly vacation rental before selling it with a small profit a few weeks before my second child was born (not enough rentals scheduled during the last six months or so to cover the mortgage).

Ditto , building cost both labor and material has almost doubled in the past 6months due to the Phoenix valley being in so much demand.Dirt here in any area that people want to live is expensive.Have you considered building like a cottage set up with 6 to 8 doors with aninner court, U shape set up ?
