My wife and I are considering buying a house that has an 840sqft 1 bed 1 bath apartment in the basement.

These crash pads usually have multiple beds per room and charge by the month.

So I did a quick comp of rental in the area and went for the lower side but now looking at rentals in the area you would be right I should have asked for more for a four bed 2200sqfhome.

We currently rent a 1 bed 1 bath apartment but are hoping to start with a flip-in to live in for 3-4 years before moving into a more permanent single family home in SouthCoast Massachusetts.

Congrats Me and my wife recently purchased a duplex in our area. 3 bed 1.5 bath.

Currently 2 bed 1 bath, AR 4 bed 2 bath. 

Pest / Rodent Ordinances: With the recent explosion of bed bugs in the east coast, this has been a big one.

The main house is 1,104 sq ft and 2 bed 2 bath.

Sq footage, # beds/baths, age of home, single/multifamily, style of home, quality of area)2) Are there specific types of financing that are advantageous for people using this strategy?

To give some background on this property: it is located in the East Tampa Area, 7/7, yes that is 7 beds and 7 Baths full reno asking 1.7 million.
