We had a few plumbing issues once the renters moved in due to tree roots in the sewer line and a pipe freeze (outside) on a cold winter day, but generally once we fixed it up, the house was rentable for the next couple of years with few repairs required.In terms of managing the property we put an ad in the local paper and that was more or less worthless.

Also because of this some of the pipes have been freezing in the laundry room in the winter.

But repairs, like the furnace is suddenly out on a freezing cold day, or a water pipe broke, can't wait.

I have owned several they are much higher maintenance, very susceptible to freezing, are easily damaged compared to houses, and, well you get the idea.

oops, I was having a brain freeze and thought you were referring to Manufactured Homes which would definitely not be good candidates for AirBnB : )Multi- family makes much more sense for what you're describing!

Hey,I'm looking at a short sale property that has freeze damage to pipes (listing says extent of damage is unknown).

CPVC is way more prone to freezing and bursting than copper or PEX in my experience.

A square is 100 sg ft. it takes 3 bundles to do a square. and yes at least in freezing areas, you need ice and water shield and drip edge.

Yea, my tenants could stay with a friend, or I could put them up at motel, but the pipes could freeze.

That will freeze your entire account.
