Regarding converting an old victorian into a multifamily, that's a great idea and the kind of creativity I am open to exploring in order to stay in the East Bay.

Hello All,My name is Kendra and I am really looking forward to exploring the BP community and soaking up the knowledge.

I won't be able to do the fha loans because I already own a home and family would definitely have my head if I proposed to move. lolI still need to explore my heloc option which I didn't before because I was still upside down on my mortgage (bought this house at its very peak pricing before the crash).

We're considering different locations for it and are exploring locations now. 

If they wouldn't go 50/50 with a repair that was of equal benefit, I would seriously explore obtaining my own connection to the city sewer system and abandon the existing connection. 

I saw a demo of LiveRes and Guesty and both seemed pretty good- with Guesty being cheaper at 3% and no fees, but would like to explore other options as well.

You can explore your options and make your own decisions. 1.
