Its actually funny the last time I had the police come over to take a report the officer said well theres nothing we can do but if you end up dead we have a good place to start!!!

Even the extremely limited office hours she has posted she is rarely around.

I think that perhaps your loan officer gave you substandard service by not following up with you each step of the way in an advisory role, but I don't think that makes them responsible for the consequences.

That way if you're renting to a family of four (mom/dad, 2 kids) that gives them an extra room for guest/play/office etc.Do some inexpensive kitchen upgrades (paint cabinets, new hardware, backsplash) and put the rest towards the new room.

Who is your primary tenant population: students, workers at a local institution or factory, retail workers, working poor, etc.?  

Initially I was interested in purchasing, renovating and leasing the units out - there are (3) 2 bedroom/1 bath (approx. 1000 SF ) units, (2) 1 bedroom/1 bath units (approx. 750 SF) and a office unit on the ground floor (approx. 750 SF) , these units would rent out between $950 and $1,300/month - however, the owner was not interested in selling but she did offer the option for a triple net lease.

There are several REI clubs in Colorado and I believe one meets at the BP office each month now. 

Do you have a good resource for where I can find what 100-200 sq ft of office space rents for in a certain city (Simpsonville, SC in my case)?
