Single-family residence buy & hold investment in Roscommon.

This is my first investment property. The value has increased by $50k in the last 2 years and even though we only rent it from May to Oct, it cash flows about $5,000 for the year. Plus, my family uses the house for vacations.

Airbnb can be more profitable and less work than traditional rentals, but location is what really matters.
