What can I say. I bought an old school house around 2 miles from my house spent a fortune turning into a mixed use building. Each classroom is a studio apartment. I had a fiber line installed. I guess the only thing I can say is that 8 units was a magic number for me. The idea is that if one should pay about 25% as rent. 8 units represent 200% of the average income of my town. The downside is that all the serious building code laws start above 5 units. This means I must comply with ADA, Fire protection, and many others. I don't resent this. They all seem like fair if costly rules. I prefer a single building to multiple smaller units. A single building helps me focus and I only have one location to be at besides home.
