I have many years experience working in hotels and restaurants from front desk clerk to restaurant manager.

But this is for RV Resorts, not multi-family. but more similar to a hotel resort or Airbnb at a multifamily scale.

Even the cheapest hotel at $100 a night is $3,000 per man.I find them a 4-5 bedroom home.

During a dispute, the tenants call the city and the owners had to move out of the basement, stayed in hotel for months until the tenants was evicted.

(This happened to a hotel near me where the builder used too much glue on almost all the fittings and now they are ripping out all the cpvc pipes in the whole hotel.)3).

hi mike, congrats on the move. it sounds like it was not easy. but hey, thats a good thing. you have proven that you have what it takes to make it in this business. you are willing to stick it out no matter what it takes. you got what it takes. that being said, don't have such a low opinion of home inspectors. i happen to be one. some are, lets say, less that enjoyable. its not uncommon to find two different guys with 2 different opinions just weeks apart. i am sure it was not an " altogether different list". they most likely found many similar things but one guy found more issues and one guy thought an issue was a big deal when the other didn't. thats normal. it sounds like you got a decent deal on the duplex. congrats. hopefully there is equity in the place that you can use in the future to buy more. my advice, go ahead and turn that storage space into an studio apartment. who cares what to call it. lets just call it a money maker.......lol. if you live near  a college or something, you could rent it out to a college student, or make it transitional housing by renting it to someone in a transition period of their life such as someone just moving into town for a new job, or someone who would otherwise rent in an extended stay hotel, or even a vacation rental sort of thing. there are all kinds of possibilities here. good luck to you

He advised me to simply have them sign a Hotel/Motel type agreement and then call him if I had troubles. 

Great person who made my life much better in our hotel business.

There are many new restaurants with the growth along US Hwy 259 in auto dealers, hotels and new apartment compleses.
