My family makes a joke about how those items aren't "Nickproof") At this point we decided to call it and come back tomorrow. 

Here is a critical item I ran into with other properties: Avantstay has a vendor to take out and bring in the bins.

If the house has all major components in working order a few cosmetic items doesn't make it not livable.

I'm sure y'all already knew that!

Here's a https://www.irs.gov/businesses/cost-segregation-audit-technique-guide-chapter-4-principal-elements-of-a-quality-cost-segregation-study-and-report to the IRS website noting specific items that are included in the cost segregation study report. hmm, that website is a 404 error.  

The PM should provide itemized items of what was done.

We have 8 business entities availing of their services, and as "advisors", they should make business life easier -- not add more work on your plate --- but instead, my team and I have been checking for mistakes, or following up on action items, missed deadlines, and paying penalties to the IRS and Secretaries of State due to their negligence.

For Non-Admitted carriers, the important item to then pay attention to is the AM Best rating (or equivalent rating agency).

Have them send you a line by line item of what's needed.

Another struggle i have with STR is replacing small items continually which ties back to pricing.
