I am very excited to engage with this community that has already taught me SO much.

Would a reasonable first step be to engage an investor-friendly RE Agent who could advise on selling vs renting?

The landlord policy should have clear language that covers damages done by tenants engaged in illegal activity. 

I don't engage in continued communication where each person ends up just repeating themselves multiple times.  

I'm on Bigger Pockets to connect with all you awesome people, make friends, engage in discussions, share nuggets of wisdom and take life to the next level.

They say he is engaged and has a good job and will be out in 3 to 5 months. 

Regarding what Coach Houses look like, I think there are some lost opportunities for re-capturing and engaging/activating space.Check out the research proposal by Future Firm called Rebel Garages.

(Also an affiliation with local contractors and experience of my own in that arena and still actively engaged in remodeling, flips, upgrades, etc.) 

Engaged?

Unfortunately, I was unable to make it today due to previous engagements, but thank for the invite.
