Another option is to replace the window with glassblock with a small vent that can be opened.NEVER put blinds in a shower - they just rot!

I want to either leverage this to lower my rent to inadvertently pay for a storage unit in place of the basement, actually gain basement access, or keep it in my back pocket as there is a small chance my fiance and I want to break the lease early and this may be grounds to do so. 

Why couldn't you take out a small loan and YOU be responsible for paying it out of YOUR proceeds?

Hi, I would like some zoning and investment deal advice.I am considering a property in a small town with decent historical appreciation, because I see the possibility of living there with an improved lifestyle as well as cash flowing rentals already on the property.

I called the city and because nothing in the immediate area is zoned residential that it would have a very small chance of being converted into a duplex.  

List of things to fix:Clean house, Carpet replacement, Floor patch up, Interior Painting, Bathtub recaulk, water heater replacement, leak check, small dry wall cut and restore, Roof fascia repairThank you.

Let's assume it's a full bath.The smallest possible full bath can be shoehorned into about a 4.5 x 5-foot floor area, usually what people consider a small full bath is 5 x 10 feet, with a tub and shower surround.

Purchase price: $135,000 Cash invested: $5,500 Small property in Beebe, Arkansas.

I've done this with my properties because I'm well known in my small town and don't want people to know what I own.LEGAL PROTECTION: By placing your assets in an LLC, you are legally separating them from your personal assets.

Some idea's- wholesaling, structuring a seller/creative finance deal, or finding a deal then finding a partner with funding then offer to provide the management and grunt labor for a small slice of equity (10% of a deal is better than 100% of no deal).
