The only thing not permitted is a wet bar and some kitchen cabinets.  

Cash flow should be relatively stable regardless of economic conditions (barring disaster).

We were originally going to put our PB duplex on the market next spring but with the new SVR restrictions set to take place next July (barring court challenges and delays) we don't want to be on the market if/when a ton of investors start dumping their multifamily properties, so we'll be testing the waters and possibly listing it in October or November.We shall see.

If I build a "single family home", are there usually limits on how many wet bars it can have?

See you there, barring emergencies.

Takes a different skill set but the bar is set pretty low honestly. good luck!

I am not afraid to drag him through the mud and take it to the Bar association, but my preferred solution is simply to have him do the job we have paid him to do.My wife is planning to go talk to him on Monday, I'm currently overseas, so any advice you have before then would be greatly appreciated. 

But I know what you meant, so barring all of the above aspects, I think Mark makes a good point, REITs might give you the long term returns without much of the hands on management.

It was just a small dairy business with a snack bar.
