I am based in New England. 30,000 foot view of my model is  to identify underutilized/value add opportunities and raise capital on a deal-by-deal basis (multi-family, industrial and self-storage).

There's some insulation between the upper floors and basement, but it can noisy if there's a ton of foot traffic upstairs. 

I'm very interested in short term rentals but I'm working on getting my foot in the door with wholesaling first.

Normally the lower of the two scores are used for eligibility. 

I don’t normally see minisplits in my area and wanted to make sure I could compete for tenants.

I don't think it would be very easy to self manage this many while maintaining a full time job and normal life.

I would normally recommend Bob Copper with Self Storage 101.However, if the question is wide-open and you're wondering what in general would be best to do with that land, there is a lady out of California named Jo Beth White, with Development Services, Inc. who conducts Reverse Feasibility Studies for commercial projects nationwide.In other words, instead of asking, "Should I build XYZ?"

Nothing thrill me more than painting a verbal picture through a listing or being able to sell the home through the photos before you end step foot in the house. 

The Michigan guide says one bedroom occupant per 50 square feet, which means in a 10 foot by 10 foot bedroom, you would have two occupants.

Or if I should just continue business as normal.
