Wife has never been interested, but now wants to get into Airbnb. 50% of my battle with real estate has been getting my wife on board, so I’m going to try some Airbnb.Any recommendations for books to help with Airbnbs?

Things always work better if you communicate with the city prior to construction and get them on board with your concept.

House hacking sounds like it would be your best option, but only if your wife is on board as well.

I hope at the very least your spouse is on board now. 

I can't get on board with the idea that STR guests affect a neighborhood that much (at least not in mid-size cities in middle America). 

My plan was to just start calling and scheduling appointments with managers in my area and introducing myself and putting my vision out there to see who is receptive or may be willing to get on board.  

They also do a  great job of onboarding newbies and teaching you the basics of str property management software which I appreciated.It's geared towards folks with multiple properties, and is definitely overkill for a single property. 

You bet big, you can lose big.If your wife is onboard with all this, start slow and see how you both like it.Find out how much your current home will rent out for - and then use 90% of that for your estimates.

I remember talking to my husband before we bought our first home about a duplex but he wasn't thrilled with that idea, but now he seems onboard and even a bit excited.
