Like I see how it could work in a perfect world but i cant wrap my head around the idea that I could be making a profit if I still don't actually own the house and still have to pay down all of the loans.

I guess I can't wrap my head around the fact that anyone can make an argument as to how the doors and windows being left open was not the root cause of this issue.

Each year, I like to take time to reflect on the prior year and where I’m headed in the current year.

So I just joined Buildium, spent hours setting everything up, it seems mostly pretty great, except one HUUUUGE issue that is making my head explode...they don't support credit card tracking?!?!?  

People just make sure they have all that they need when they head out.

Any pricing-related tool offered by the OTA itself (think of VRBO, booking etc) is there to ensure you are getting heads in beds at any rate possible, just to ensure they are getting paid. 

I definitely need to do more analysis in terms of comparing against other rentas in the area and ideal beds and heads count. 

@Jay Hinrichs yes to my knowledge there are other states that changed regs.Off the top of my head.

I always recommend starting with a prequalification letter to get a solid view of your purchasing power before heading out into the real estate market.

Yes that’s what I was initially thinking… then I started to structure the deal in my head and it looked a lot more like what you described with a partnership.
