I found the location and ..... very agreeable to my needs and I look forward to working with you!

Based on the actual location of this property, you may be a little early to the party. 

Ever thought about renting out the apartment (or similar in different locations where it suits better) per room to students or expats/working people? 

You had a ton of former home owners becoming renters, and that pushed up the demand for rentals almoat everywhere.I tend to get strong rent growth in general as I specifically target locations with strong rent growth.I have however had rents go down in my far far outlying properties from DC.

@James Joynes You said  "Place" did you  mean location?

Is this related to the location of your property?

BDS has a good Change of Use or Occupancy flyer - https://www.portlandoregon.gov/bds/article/125287 - that lists the exact situation I'm curious about: "changing a house or duplex in a non-residential zone to a short-term vacation rental," but I can't find more detail about it anywhere else.The City has no shortage of info about accessory short-term rentals that Airbnb will partner with Portland to enforce permits for next year, but I'm interested in requirements for non-accessory short-term vacation rentals (as articulated in that link) located in non-residential zones.

Hello BP Community My partner and I are interested in purchasing a mobile home and RV park directly from a small owner who is located in a rural part of Central Florida.

I have located a house that has been abandoned for over a year.
