Here are the complaints from neighbors: the tenant’s “guest” lives there full time, the “guest” is extremely loud (plays video games and yells loudly when watching football) and smokes marijuana (violation of the lease).

Its hard to find time to cold call while in college, as I have classes and also football.

I had them check uber/lyft (no drivers), had them ask the car rental company for a ride (can't do it), call a local taxi (phone has been disconnected), called the cleaner (I'm doing a cleaning), called handyman (I'm with my kids at football practice.)

Would you go all in on a tropical hot spot like the next international Airbnb vacation craze like Mykonos or some wine country town in France?

Not a problem at all, I've been away in France for a week.How much capital are you looking to use and what return over what time frame are you looking to gain?

We get top dollar for Clemson events like football games and graduation. 

They have recently got a football team which will bring a lot of people to the beach and i30 area 

It is in a nice area and he would be able to rent it out 6 weekends each year for college football games which could net 8-10k total. 

If you and your wife plan on traveling, what would you do when the almighty call comes in and you need to do something to the property while you are vacationing in France??

I spent 2005-2009 living a stone's throw from the park, playing football on weekends, and kickball and softball on weekdays.
