One was making an extra $600/month while covering all of his household expenses with just 3 PadMates. 

The extra cabinets I needed in order to complete the design ended up costing $2,000.

I had another person try to bargain me down to $1700/month, and said she was moving out of her dad's house and so needed room to store boxes in the extra bedrooms. 

What I will do is attempt to find a QUALIFIED substitute tenant, credit the original tenant with the rent paid by the new tenant LESS one or two months fee for the extra work and effort, but I will NOT release the original tenant from liability should the substitute tenant default.Look, the bottom line is that renting to tenants is a business, just like any other business.  

Hi everyone, a couple of years ago I bought my house and around a year ago I decided to make some extra income and rent a room through airbnb.

After listening to him talk for close to 45 minutes, I finally said that if I have an extra $18,000 to $35,000 wouldn't I just invest that in my own property and get all of the rental income and if I sold the property 100% of the proceeds, not 50% of it. 

Hey Kendrick, we use Propstream for property data and Smarter Contact as a CRM for text and voice campaigns.

If that's not the standard in your area, the potential for the extra rent is attractive.

@Aus Smith if there is base rent and then an extra fee the resident pays for a common utility, we count that as revenue towards a percentage-based management fee.
