@Terrance ColemanWelcome to the community and be ready for a huge amount of information at your finger tips.

Just a few tips that helped me along my journey. 

Mitch thanks for the tips and advice.

Vacationers are starting to go back to hotels as Airbnb fees have increased and they don't want to deal with cleaning dishes on top of paying cleaning fees.We stayed in a nice vacation rental on the Oregon Coast and there was evidence that kids or homeless were hanging about when it was vacant.  

Would appreciate any tips, insights, or areas of suggested research. 

@Drew Sygit: Thanks for the tip.

No, but there are many "haunted houses" here in LA including a couple hotels.  

Can't speak to the organization in Michigan but generally the benefits of a well run STRA far outweigh the costs.I am a property manager in Hawaii so we are constantly being hit with new anti-STR legislation and have a large, well-funded hotel lobby to deal with constantly.

Sneaky duplex is a term I coined and is when you section off part of your home and create a short term rental unit, like a hotel room.
