Turns out one unit is a very tiny unit with 1 bedroom, bathroom, and a kitchen with no other general or living room space.

If you find a tiny bank with their own portfolio, heck, ask the teller.

That is an extremely tiny deal.Most commercial mortgage guys have 10,000 minimums or 1% of loan balance whichever is greater.

Tiny house owners in Austin (TX) – are tiny homes considered ADUs in Austin city zip 78702?

For your money, you get a fixed 8% return plus a very tiny sliver of the equity.

What incentive is a wooden nickle bonus to go through the process of finding a tenant only to receive multiple weekend/holiday calls for a disruptive tenant?

If it is a house that is in a Historic District, with wooden siding, and a converted property then I go for $200.

Great story and way to be patient, yeah I would say a meth lab would be a tiny bump :)
