Some can be initiated by the tenant, some by the landlord.

Not sure where it is located but maybe your first step is to try and sell the lot to someone else?

I’ve been interested in real estate for awhile, but when I stumbled across this podcast it really gave me the kick I needed to take the next step.

If you wanted to take it a step further your county should have a local zoning board i'm pretty sure you can appeal to them as well for info in exactly what your looking for just try doing a bunch of keyword google searches i'm pretty sure something good will pop up. good luck !

I go strictly be numbers for my initial analysis to weed out most properties. 

I supply a basic starter set of its ( a few rolls or TP, basic soaps etc) and let guests know that only an initial basic supply is provided so they know to pack ahead. 

Or is there a way to get any of my initial money back out yet?

Should the initiative pass in November, cities and counties would be allowed to change existing laws, or adopt new ordinances without any restrictions.

@Jay Hinrichs This was my initial thought and I talked to my accountant and he said that I could potentially rent it out for a couple of years and still pay no tax.

But I’m not sure all the steps to making that happen.
