check your local ordinance as here it is 1.5 parking spaces per unit, also check the lease agreement if it does not clearly state 2 spot allowance then they arent entitled to it , so youll just want to negotiate that, but try and have the current owner do that as they already have a preexisting relationship and if you are moving in, the last thing you want is angry tenants next to you

And because they have dispensed with HVAC (some will have a single ductless mini-split), there is more usable floor and wall space - no vents, no radiators, no baseboards.

I know there is the one BP guy who states it is surrounded by gov lands and that limits supply but within that space there is still much room to go.

Money is tight, and thats a problem, but problems call for solutions and I love figuring things out.  

The rates and terms are much better in the residential space.  

The basement layout is awkward, has a bunch of wasted space and could be changed to make 2 bedrooms. 

This is a very tight rope that you have to walk between performing your fiduciary duty, but also insulating yourself from liability if they screw things up.As an agent, I have no problem talking in detail to experienced flippers.....but I am a little hesitant to get into too much detail with a newbie client.  

I want one or two to fit in the VERY tight spots so I don't have to tear out a wall and rebuild to replace a water heater. 

Most of these buildings have no less than 3,000 sqft retail space, and many have basements for storage.  

It's tight but we're working on moving out right now and it's awesome being able to count on some extra income when you move on.
