These large buyers/owners would discover that no matter how much they controlled their processes, it was extremely common to have multiple houses in the same neighborhood (or even on the same street) with dramatically different floor plans, mechanicals, and finishes.

They were messy, dramatic and took an immense amount of work.

One strategy to consider to boost the rental income is to rent out by the room. 

You need to do work (and take on the risk) to boost your returns.

It may sound dramatic and needy, but that is how I see it.Given this, it should make some sort of sense that I must force my way to create relationships and value from the smallest of openings - if I am to create a environment where I feel good about my place in the world.

There is little or no inventory of houses and this will change that dramatically:  mostly behind people’s backs.  

I have read the forum for years, but I don't remember reading that most rentals had an indoor pool.It could also have to do with that owner spending all those boost credits.

Also, A-L-W-A-Y-S boost them after posting.

The type of property that you're searching for will also dramatically impact the attractiveness of the property to other buyers.
