@Wade Wisner tapped out... checked out... quit...I think its from "fights/sparring" where you "tap" (your opponent, the mat, whatever) to signal your submission.So, looks like @Steve Vaughan got out of the business in the spring of '22...

I've looked into soundproofing matting to attach to the ceiling, then the Z channels and another layer of drywall, but I wondered if anyone else has dealt with this.

I'd add hardware and throw down a small rug (with antiskid mat under it). 

Beware of bedbugs getting on your clothes and you transferring them back to your own home- if you wear a haz mat type suit the renters will feel like something is wrong and feel very uncomfortable- but in some heavily infested situations it might be called for.

Hanging a large picture or something at the head of the bed usually looks nice.Additional Bedrooms:Any additional bedrooms, I stage either as an office with a writing desk and computer chair, a workout room (yoga mat and pretty exercise accessories), or a nursery with a neutral white or wood toddler bed and a changing table.

You can have a couple yoga mats and some light weights in the house if you feel it would add to the guest experience. 

Trying to start an off market deal pipeline and confused about how to boost strapping pulling a list, skip tracing, and calling 

@Eli Joffe the most general but applicable advice in your situation is to start focusing on high cash-flow properties with low equity growth potential in the beginning in order to have the cash to boot strap.Once you have a few properties under your belt, then start phasing in nicer homes which tend to be lower cash-flow with higher equity growth potentialThe former helps you boot-strap using more labor and the latter helps build wealth more passively and with less tenant struggles.
