Matthew,Am just starting to invest in multi family space, realistically up to 50 units.

thanks for the inspiration, I am 21y/o myself and plan on moving into the multi-family space sometime between my mid twenties using traditional financing - but now you have definitely opened up my mind about using creative financing - thanks so much & congrats!

If not again you would be better off buying your own home and having enough yard/space for all of them but 13 is still way to many dogs unless you live on a farm or own acres of land.I have worked in the banking business and have seen people lose their homes that they rent due to landlords kicking them out with very little warning due to breach of contract or a No pet rule. 

I think behind tenant screenings and leases there is a quality of a landlord that's also as a person that is the respect for a good person and the intelligence of making fair affairs.For me for ten years in the past I had a house of 650sqft (two rooms and cozy kitchen) where I always have been giving away one of the room for others who were asking for help for themselves and I didn't had any earnings for me by that, and that has been during for many and many years, meanwhile I was surely needing more space for me, for my business in a studio and for my own personal life I eventually could have been having.Nonetheless this, on last years I had no more an house and I needed a room for rent, but even before any screening the landlords were being unrespectful and very unreasonably severe to me, they often had making me lose so much time by no taking or going away to the point I had no other choices in the end, and they set me in the wrong places for me, dangerous ones, too small, too big and very expensive, unhealthy ones or not providing anything at all when it was obvious they needed to.To me this kind of behaviour is very wrong, mostly because usually they are the same people who pretend respects and acts as they are very careful and attentive to housing situations in general, but with me, they have been lying above anything and just disrespected the person at a human level. 

New roof, exterior painting, new flooring, bathroom updates, finished new living space What was the outcome?

I am not opposed to the idea but definitely need to get more educated on the details such as where exactly, is it too crowded of a space, how to be competitive, maintenance requirements for a beach rental, etc.

The design aspect is fun too—you can get really creative with how you furnish spaces depending on your tenants' preferences.That said, it’s definitely more on the lighthearted and quirky side, so don’t expect hardcore realism.

Speaking to a commercial realtor in the hospitality space would help you figure out the best way to market and sell a property like this.

The plant has added no value to the area during this time but rather has served as wasted space and an eyesore for residents.

I would suggest leasing a commercial space for your business first before you go straight to purchasing a space.
