So at 100% you're at about 8%, high by today's market rates but I did alot of business at 10%, so sounds like while you'd like a lower rate you may need to live with what ya did for awhile.Being able to afford something, having the capacity to pay for it and the value something has to you can be two different things.

Listing agents get calls from people all the time who say they want to buy but don't have the capacity, so they're bound to have some skepticism.

Prior to becoming a licensed agent, I worked in property management and restoration construction.In the latter capacity of construction, I found myself weekly working with parties who would bring me Inspection Contingencies to determine the scope and cost of work necessary to get real estate deals closed.  

Issues that go into these decisions includes whether the area has adequate power grid, enough water and sewer services, parking, traffic issues, capacity of schools.

Well, imagine the sewer main has a partial blockage, and imagine there is a lot of pipe (and thus a lot of sewage capacity) between toilet 1 and blockage in the sewer main--when you flush that toilet, it doesn't back up because there's plenty of pipe to hold the sewage (although, if you repeatedly flushed it, it might back up...and eventually, as the blockage in the sewer main gets worse in the future, it will probably eventually start backing up)...on the other hand, imagine that toilet 2 has minimal pipe between it and the sewer main's blockage (and thus, minimal sewage capacity), so when you flush it, the water almost immediately meets the blockage, causing that toilet to back up.I'm not saying that's necessarily what's occurring at your property--but it's an example of how a blockage could cause one toilet to back up, but not another.To determine whether the problem is indeed caused by a sewer main blockage, watch the scope video, and ask the sewer scope guy to show you where the blockage is on the video.Hopefully that helps...Good luck!

Last time we had 40 people come and that was the max capacity for the space.

Hi Mike, I worked in solar in nearly every capacity possible (residential, commercial, utility, community solar, etc.) for many years before I transitioned into RE full time.

Essentially, they all suck in some capacity.  

STRs are often max capacity and trying to squeeze people in beyond capacity.

Purchase price $450k, with projected gross rent at $14k/month at full capacity.
