I have a unique opportunity with a single family house set up for student housing. 

My assumption is that we will have to petition for a change in zoning, but I wanted to see if anyone could offer some advice as to what potential hurdles may lie ahead for us in this somewhat unique situation.Thanks BP

Hi everyone,I'm new to the forum, really excited to learn some unique investing concepts!

There just hasn't been a scenario like this on any of the podcast I've heard unique to NC or licensed agents.

I have 20 properties that could be considered "comps" by some stretch of the imagination.

Any creative ways to get into something like this, this early or is it to much of a stretch.  

The house style is actually unique in this area (though not in the northeast), a tri-level.

Paying $200k with a $400 monthly HOA is a stretch on your budget, so to counteract that, you want to put a substantial downpayment to make the payment more manageable?

This is unique relative to other places I've personally rented (Denver, Orlando, LA and Boston). 

Any other insights that are unique to Florida or commercial I should consider would also be appreciated.
