Hi, I am a newbie investor who is playing the slow game in buying a primary, rehabbing, then turning into a rental or selling every 2 years.

However, short-term rentals where the owner is not providing meals may not fall under this definition.Legal Precedents: Various court cases have established that renting out a home for short periods does not automatically convert it to a commercial use, especially if the property is still being used primarily for residential purposes.HOA Enforcement: If the HOA decides to enforce this clause against short-term rentals, it may need to clarify its stance and possibly amend the CC&Rs to explicitly include or exclude short-term rentals to avoid confusion.In summary, while the CC&Rs may suggest restrictions, the interpretation can vary based on legal precedents and the specific wording of the documents.

For example, we finish the basements with indoor/outdoor carpet (instead of LVP, which makes it feel a lot more homey), because we know parents go nuts in the winter if they can't send the kids downstairs to pay - or have a space for the guys to watch the game on Sunday.

The API to VRBO sometimes is a issue but since most my business is on Airbnb its not a huge game changer.
