We are making our attempt at due diligence on a particular property.

@Michael Baradell, I will attempt to 'qualify' my statements before I make them.

I would not recommend class D for a newbie just as I would not recommend a newbie attempt their first BRRRR OOS In a historically 0 appreciation market.  

But it would accomplish basically what they have herein attempted to accomplish by  breaking the rules. 

My experience has been disappointing, to say the least, while attempting to work with professionals in South Florida.

We live in the front unit and are preparing to rent the rear unit. ( I am not a contractor, but have a lot of construction experience and have always worked on my own house. ) As I attempt to make minor repairs, such as replacing a stove hood, I have been told that because it is a rental unit, I have to hire a contractor to pull the permit and perform the work. 

Either way, the lesson learned that I need to be involved in communications with CE either before closing, or as soon as possible after.No, my PE isnt attempting to persuade them I was just outlining that up until she became involved, they were standing by their statement that they were no longer contesting the occupancy.Regarding documentation, everything we have states that it's a 4-unit.

When this happens, I would be happy forward you that lead, so you can attempt to get this listing.
