Spent all of last year with the builder and architect going back and forth to get the sqft cost down and finally threw in the towel.  

Finally, when using these "self service" options like Zillow, Rentredi, etc. you are at the mercy of "their process" and it can become cumbersome.

Finally, make sure that your short-term rental (STR) meets IRS requirements and doesn't get classified as long-term or this could prevent you from leveraging this tax strategy event though you are materially participating in property and it was placed in service.

Finally, if the IRS tells you this scheme is invalid, you could be facing massive back taxes and penalties.

Model to Image - Some apps such as Veras connect to your Sketchup/Rhino/Revit software and can directly render simple masses into final results.

I do final walk the day before.

Once you have all of these processes being handled by a PM, you can finally afford the one item all investors seek when managing a property that you simply cannot put a price on: peace of mind.

It look me several years to finally connect the dots.

Now I finally did it, I gave 2 months notice to the property manager and set up my listing in Airbnb & Homeaway and opened up the calendar for November & December.
