Rarity is the amount of emotion that people get when they see your post.

Established PM's don't like to go into D areas: it's a lot more work and emotionally harder on their staff for the same percentage - but of a lower rent. 

A landlord does not need to provide a reasonable accommodation for an emotional support animal when:The property is an owner-occupied building with four or fewer unitsThe property is a single-family home sold or rented by the owner without the use of an agentThe emotional support animal poses a risk to the health or safety of other people, or a risk of substantial damage to property (but this risk must be specific to the animal and cannot be based solely on assumptions about the animal’s breed)"Definitely have a chat with a local attorney to ensure your local laws apply, nonetheless since its an owner occupant, it sounds like you have some recourse to deny this request. 

Good luck with this but make sure you dig a little deeper into the project before deciding to move forward. 

Inconsistency leads to confusion and both parties being overly emotional due to that. 

I am going to do some deeper analysis on the property with an architect before moving forward. 

the issue with sub 2 wrap goes deeper than just monetary loss.. your risking the people you bought the house from as well.. and I will say one more time.. if you buggar their credit because you cant refi if  gets called or cant make payments for them.. then this goes way past you lost a little money and it ends up with lawyer letters  complaints to the AG  etc etc..

I find that asking those questions (in bold), I get higher quality/deeper answers.

Seeing the place where you made so many memories with your family trashed, and then going through the emotional turmoil of repairing and remodeling it, knowing it will eventually just get trashed again...are you prepared for that?

I wanted the house and got emotionally attached ... to the neighborhood because I knew the prices starting to go up in this neighborhood quickly.
