Good functionality and priced right for an entry-level investor.

Since Google got its start as a search engine, I think that is one of the best functionalities that they have.

I can visualize it, but at the same time, I am tentative to begin. 

Your net worth is a function of you network after all.

To make it functional, the pathway to it needs to be to the main house, not going through a garage, it also needs to be heated and cooled to be living space, best tied into the HVAC of the home and have a window, natural light not so much as legal egress.  

The unauthorized tenant, leaking faucets, non-functional smoke detectors, leaking traps, and ac filters are a big deal. 

Plus working for multi-family/commercial real estate doing many of the same functions only as an employee and therefore no license needed.

As with anything, rent + vacancy is a function of supply/demand of mostly jobs.

Try searching out people using the network function on BP.
