The tax savings on an airbnb is a cool sidenote, but that is all it is.

This is so cool Kenneth thank you for sharing! 

Check out how much you could make by looking into what others charge in your area and think about throwing in bonuses for folks who stick around longer or if you offer some cool extras.

Sounds like a cool project! 

the deal works really good on paper , its not in a bad area its actually in a decent little community with a k-5 across the street and all that. neighbors are cool too . just met them yesterdayPretty much all systems are go , the wife is on board, the price is right , otherwise a great deal but these weird things the guy that built it chose to do..

That's really cool to hear.

And Manhattan beach is really cool as well.

That's so cool!

Hello all,I've been reading a lot on BP for a while now and figured it would be cool to post and introduce myself.  

Take the cost of the home long term add the mortgage, taxes and true repair costs such as upkeep and new roofs , heating and cooling mechanicals etc over the years.
