I currently house hack in Chicago, however, going from that to STRs where I cannot self manage is a different ball game and just wanting to pick peoples brains who are doing what I'm interested in doing.

Hey everyone,For those in the real estate game, how do you track your property expenses, labor, and other details during the renovation process, especially when managing multiple properties simultaneously (e.g., 3-5 houses)?

Playing an appreciation game can be risky.

A big part of succeeding in this game is simply staying in the game.Make sure to take the lessons from this experience so it’s not in vain:•Always keep reserves.

It's a game to inflate each other's posts.Your DMs are probably absolutely stuffed right now.

Just be ready for the ride...it’s not always smooth sailing, but if you play it right, those jitters can turn into some seriously sweet returns.And if you do end up jumping on a short-term rental in Tampa Bay, just pick up the phone and let's dig into it.

House may continue to appreciate.Cons: Not sure how the revenue plays against social security, Medicare & taxes.

Most agents, I can tell you from experience, will not spend too much time on you since your so fairly new and at your purchase price your not a big fish so they will tend to put you on the back burner since heir return is not going to be a game changer.

Grateful to be part of this amazing community of go-getters and game-changers.
