If no, what’s the recommended work around (I.e. flat rate of consulting services)?

@Don Konipol @Mark MilesIt's actually a triple whammy, my official day job is doing pre-employment drug screens on the refinery contractors. 

Is it a flat amount, or a percent of my commission?

@Peice Livingston regardless, my point is it's unlikely the state will flat out "forfeit" rent payments for tenants.

A quick google search for tenant resources in San Antonio came up pretty flat. 

The final results were indentified volatile organic compounds in the soil vapor and indoor air exceeding the commercial environmental screening levels for benzene, ethylbenzene, PCE and chloroform.

City isn't likely to let you rezone it anyway (assuming it's in a single family neighborhood) and it doesn't really become multifamily until you add a second stove and range (like you might in a casita).All in all, take a look at the CC&Rs and the HOA documents to see if there is any limitation or restriction on leasing your property (such as no short term rentals under 6 months) and do all the normal due diligence and screening of your tenants and you shouldn't have much problems at all.

For kitchen cabinets I recommend using a semi-gloss paint, it handles water and constant cleaning far better than flat, eggshell, etc.

Click on NETWORK and then select HARD MONEY LENDERS on the left side of your screen.

That way, you can possibly get some income while screening tenants.
