Thanks for the help everyone, just wanted to update you and let you know we now manage this client, they made the switch a few weeks ago.

Not performing the first couple of weeks..

.$49 Ring Video Doorbell - https://www.amazon.com/Ring-Video-Doorbell-Venetian-Bronze-2...Kinda the standard for basic video/audio. $59.99 Keurig K-Mini single serve coffee maker - https://www.amazon.com/Keurig-K-Mini-Single-Serve-Coffee/dp/...Great for a second coffee space.

Last week I made a post about getting a US mortgage as a US citizen who lives abroad (https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/49/topics/1219693-getti...).

We have an STR in Swannanoa that wasn't damaged and have had several week+ long bookings since the storm (including Army Corps of Engineers, etc). 

My best advice, if your friend does move in, is to set up front what expectations you have (you mow the lawn every other week or first week of the months, whatever).

According to [2], private homes cannot be rented for less than a week.

I hit the call last week and then was sent the service contract today.

Last week I was hit by requests via Zillow platform inquiring about my listing on AffordableHousing.com, formerly GoSection8.com.   

It had 20 showings in the first week.
