What we care about more is that they are supremely competent and have many other real estate clients, some waay more advanced than us.

Also, it was Texas Supreme Court... so what court did it appeal to? 

Managing 10 airbnb's by yourself is doable (although still pretty difficult), but anything over and it WILL become your full-time job if you want to provide supreme service. 

The property was foreclosed in 2016 and after 8 years closed the case and ruled in favor of the bank (NY Supreme Court Suffolk County). 2 weeks ago the homeowner got a judge to sign an order to show cause (or something to that effect) and both parties are supposed to return back to court on April 6th 2018.  

@Wayne Brooks I suspect the US Supreme court "Mennonite" standard would apply despite state laws. 

The state supreme Court ruled on it, but try getting your local building official to understand case law....I saw one city not long ago defined "substantial" renovations with a variety of things, including just converting from electric to hot water baseboard heat.Could a building department interpret a conversion from 2 to 3 bedrooms per unit (adding 3 total bedrooms and increasing occupancy by 50%) as substantial?

@Matthew Teter  @Joe Papp  Gentlemen:  This is supremely helpful. 

In fact, in 2017 alone, there were 25 Ohio Supreme Court decisions.

Carmody in a Florida Supreme court case, you should be fine.
