A big thing in very old homes is how wide is the spacing between the old plank boards.

The other lender I spoke with will finance to a C5 but the terms are much harsher.This home has a crawl space of 4 ft (sits on piers).  

Rentals are one area where the little guy can still compete with the mega corps and large apt complexes, often winning over some choice tenants with personal service, flexible terms, and small touches...Just a few ways, off the top of my head, that I think we can gain a competitive advantage over more rigidly run large complexes (though all markets vary, so these are based on my experiences)....) flexible terms (I offer a six month or one year lease; of course, most six month folks renew, but some like the flexibility; some large complexes are "one year or nothing" in my market..)) new mats (inside and out of the doors; bath, even runners or area rugs in high traffic area for vinyl plank flooring)...while they add some "wow factor" and look like gifts, there is self interest at work here, however, as the matting greatly reduces wear and tear on my flooring.) pets on approval ( I have some of the best behaved canine tenants imaginable, and their high quality tenant owners stay long term, are respectful, and pay well,yet are often shunned by many "no pets" larger places)) small (tax deductible) $20 gift card at holidays ..

If you're only doing a kitchenette, you're obviously looking for a non-cooking batchelor or similar, but someone looking for a basic space.

My wife never mentions this, but deep down I know she'd like to have a house or at least a bit more space...

Is it just a hot demand for breweries, or are other types of businesses demanding space, too?

We work with many lender's in this space.  

I have 8 parking spaces that a car rental company would like to lease.

I am considering moving into the developer space if the undeveloped lots have value.
