I’m currently targeting properties in the $200K–$500K range, depending on the location and potential cash flow.

Something simple along the lines of, no pets due to small shells and turf located at property that may hurt pets, would dissuade even service animal owners.  

We plan to stay in the new primary residence for a long time because we love the location, the neighborhood, and the land.

I was going to look over your numbers for you, but can you answer a few questions:* In what zip code is this property located?

Can you give me a little more information about where the property is located? 

A lot of it has to do with location and time.If they are local owners looking at 1-2 LTR properties, I'll assist with identifying cash flowing/near cash flowing properties, assist them in the purchase as their buyers agent and assist with tenant procurement, listing, etc. but they can typically handle day to day management from there.Furnished properties, whether that be MTR or STR, are a lot more involved, as I'm sure you're aware of!

I'm sure every municipality will interpret the laws differently.65852.2(D) (iii) The accessory dwelling unit is either attached to, or located within the living area of the within,the proposed or existing primary dwelling or dwelling, including attached garages, storage areas orsimilar uses, or an accessory structure or detached from the proposed or existing primary dwellingand located on the same lot as the proposed or existing primary dwelling

Most real estate agents actually do not have the need to go into an office to close transactions and meet clients at either a natural location or at the properties they are showing or listing. 

Selling the convenience of the location first and in such detail may lead some renters to assume that there is something not so great about the house itself since the sale in on the location. 

When the rent rates stabilize, I suspect they'll bring it back.I wouldn't try it in a location like Portland, but 99% of the country would be fine with a policy like this as long as it is disclosed and applied equally.
