While you can't stop the tenant from doing their own tests I would have not relied on that at all, especially that kind of test if I understand what that is, I mean, that is not a scraping or a sample from a surface. 

I redid the entire house (drywall, HVAC, roof, landscaping, kitchen, bathrooms, and surfaces).

Yes, as long as it relates to the renting of the property in some fashion.

Lenders are still unfortunately tend to be very conservative on the rent-by-room (SRO) type arrangements still - its an area that really could use some better understanding out there but just be careful with expectations because a lot of the treatment of these properties (even if nothing like a old-fashioned "boarding house") can be tough

Sorry this is happening.On the surface there are usually a couple of things to consider:1. 

On surface, it seems like turning ~600K on a two year project with an investment of roughly 600K (or even 700 or 800K) would be very lucrative.

I know nothing about it but on the surface it seems like you can do pretty well.

Impossible to say without actual numbers to weigh but on the surface level, adding an extension seems low ROI. 

In a warmer climate like Miami, I would try to stick with hard surfaces.

Hi there,I'm about to close on my first property (6 doors) and am realizing that I don't know how to collect rent in a convenient fashion for the tenants.
