Default Converting a Single Family house to a 2 Family...any thoughts?

Considering the current economy (mine and the country's) I have been thinking of different ways to cut my expenses and/or increase my income. The people who bought my business in the White Mountains have fallen on hard times and asked me to let them defer payment for a year or two. I could demand payment, but they just don't have the money right now. This has put me in a real bind. My income is now less than my expenses and the company I work for will unlikely be offering raises this year.

I reluctantly put my house on the market, but a buyer has yet to come along. One thought that I had was dividing my house into two units and renting out one. I checked with the city of Laconia and 2-families are permitted in my neighborhood (Weirs Beach). Does anyone have a recommendation for a builder who might be able to do this?
