Maybe the P trap under the sink is not filling with water correctly and allowing sewer gas to come back in.  

Especially filling in the dates on the Full Focus planner. 

Since this will be a lengthy process I will attwmpt to fill these units up with short term office tenants, or anyone that is looking for storage space. 

If I would have used competent management, the manager that I picked and vetted, then it would have cash flowed, assuming they could have filled the vacancies.The big lesson I learned is that the property manager selected can make or break a deal. 

Also, hard money lenders want a scope of work filled out prior to funding the deal so this is a good little hack to get one as well. 

For that SMALL landlord, turnover/vacancy is VERY expensive because it takes them longer to prep and fill the vacancy and they are also paying the PM a fee for tenant placement whereas the large landlord is using their staff who is being paid whether they handle a turnover or not.

Morning!  I'm not a real estate investor, but I like learning. I'm currently reading David Greene's book on BRRRR and was curious about how you all go about planning or visualizing added rooms to potential purchases. ...

Now my first property currently has a tenant that is not paying rent, so we started the eviction process.

Question: I am wondering what are some things you've done in the past at your short term rentals to fill the vacancies during your slow season?  

This is basically what I made for myself:So every morning I get a report of everything new that hits the market in LA/Ventura, and I can just click the google links, check it out on RedFin/Zillow, and if it seems promising, fully underwrite it (using tools and/or manually), then offer on it.Don't try and come up with an auto-offer estimate, you can't tell the visual quality of the home or how much the construction will be, etc, stick to estimating values of renovated and distressed property in your tools, make it easy to fill those comps/value metrics into an underwriting model/proforma, and let the end users tweak numbers/select comps/etc so they feel confident in everything.
