@Bryan Zayac  In PA, there is a state document called the Municipal Planning Code MPC. 

. - Manzanita, Arch Cape, Cannon Beach, Pacific City - Already well established as the more prestigious zip code on the Oregon Coast and just a quick drive from Portland this northern coast region offers premium restaurants, experiences and accessibility.

- What are the key items to consider from a code/zoning stanpoint when researching various towns- Any unique items to consider about financing a small multifamily? 

It’ll save you headaches later if she tries to escalate things.Document Everything: Take pictures, write down the history of your interactions etcOffer a Transition Plan: Just like my client, I’d recomend offering her a temporary storage option nearby, or even a small rent discount, to show you’re not trying to kick her out - just keeping the property safe and up to code.

In KC I'm using the following splits: A 99k+B+ 75k - 99kB 56k - 75k B-/C+ 48k - 56k C 28k - 48kD under 28k Here is the updated guide by zip codes with the new class of B-/C+ created. 

Hey @Mike Nelson, never assume anything about STR rules and regs.Here is the STR rules for Oak Park - https://codelibrary.amlegal.com/codes/oakparkil/latest/oakpa...I would call the city and make sure it is legal for a specific property.Now regarding the famous person angle, sure it can add value to the property or as a STR, but for STR use, I would think you would need it to be in original condition with a lot of the furniture and knick-knacks that were owned by the famous person along with a bunch of photos etc featuring the famous person.If you buy a place that has been totally redone but was owned by someone famous but has no features or things that were theirs, then I don't see it being a draw. 

You need this property because of the tax code --its one of the categories where a taxpayer can meaningful reduce tax liability.

Always start the eviction process as soon as you're able to by law (not sure what Landlord Tenant code is in your state)  You can always cancel if they catch up if you want to keep them. 

I also own over 15 properties in these two zip codes. 

Thank you for your input.Keep a cheat sheet for your property(ies) with color brand/codes for each room and common info needed such as appliance info, fridge opening HxW, etc...Paint should be standard sets of colors for all the properties you have.Flat means hard to clean, repaint it all.
