Find a housewife with kids in school and if they clean 4 units and make $100 a day and never have to worry about getting kids to school or being home to pick them up they will love it.  

I believe given we are just coming out of winter season here in Phoenix, if you have tenants in all 4 units I would treat the current tenants with kid gloves.. all except the worst one.

If you don't mind spending some $$$, then Canton, Fed Hill, or Fells Point are good neighborhoods for young professionals.I'm looking to househack myself, but because I have kids we're looking for areas with decent schools and some trees (ie in the county).

I'm not sure what your tax bills look like, but ours have something like (I kid you not) 30 lines of charges.

I am currently exploring an investment strategy of acquiring a single family home for the dedicated purpose of converting to a daycare center. 

I'm very nervous and afraid of the unknown, and very much trying to stay focused and spend time learning every time my kids are with their dad.

I likely won't be able to provide anything to my kids and/or grand kids when I die, besides maybe a house or two. 

If you can do this effectively, you will be able to explore other resources (marketing, funding, other investments) in the future.Hope this helps a littleBest,Ryan

With Providence recently passing the law requiring AirBnBs to either be owner occupied or outside residential zoning districts, I wanted to explore the option since the supply of STRs should be shrinking to see if it would be worth the added turnover and management.

Now since my family and I aren't too big on the area anymore (it's kind of secluded and not the best for kids) I'm thinking of renting it out until I get my credit back up for maybe the next year and then selling and using the money I make off of it to hopefully get a couple multi-units.
