@Bruce Woodruff I guess we should wait and let @Faith Roberts reply and let us know what she is thinking but  I, personally, think there is plenty of room for her services whether long or short-term rental!

The latter being the biggest issue, because we're able to fix immediately, and bill immediately thus leaving the security deposit in tact at move out.I just realized I read the second reply as the OP, but I can't edit it out.

Just wanted to thank everyone for their replies, getting a bunch of different perspectives, thoughts, ideas, etc. is going to be very helpful.

An apartment can have downtown-level condo finishes but will stay stagnant and vacant if the bedrooms are 7x7 depending on what your tenants are looking for.I personally don't reply to zillow/trulia/hotpads direct messages/emails from the system.

Thank you for the reply.

@Arthur Dent I agree with the other replies here.

Thanks for the reply!  

@wayne brooks Thanks for the reply!

We could not find any additional records of the basement being properly finished.If you can provide any further building records in regards to the basement being properly finished the Town could look into those.I tried to call the code official who sent me the email a few times and didn't get a reply. 

Thank you for the replies all.
