It can be used as a 4/2 with a private attached studio, or as 4 room rentals with a separate studio (which is what we currently do) or as a 5/3 SFH. 

This advancement can separate yourself from other realtors in your area which is what every realtor is looking to do. 

You can use a card reader on the coin-op feature to address that, but you are into micro-issues at that point that I wouldn't want to deal with.A proposal: Tenants, installing separately metered water and electric lines that I pay for, then bill you for, will cost me $5,000 (or whatever).

And I love reading good advice, strategy and what have you...however we need a way to separate the bad and the spam from the good.

That said, it was easy for me to have my own custom site built through a 3rd party developer on UpWork, and then connect it to OwnerRez with their Wordpress plugins and short codes.I feel the cost is relatively small and worth it.I also pay separately for PriceLabs dynamic pricing engine, which I plug into OwnerRez, which for the extra $20/month, I find easily pays for itself.

When I search for rentals as a user and not as a landlord the search result shows as apartments with 3 units and when I click it then it brings up all 3 houses and says which unit the user want to go to.I paid for this premium listing and want my listing to be separated out.

I don't think a mean and median would really be that helpful unless you were classifying them separately into A, B, C, and D areas, as well as similar beds and baths.

That way each asset is separate.

The only way to do it is to do the work with the city to make all four units condos and then sell the off separately.
