We live in this nice house because I'm covering some of the mortgage expense with the income from the house hack.

With that said, here are some questions I would ask myself about the situation: Historically, have the students paid enough in the 9 months to cover all the expenses associated with these properties?

Use a reputable expert like @Dave Foster and you’ll be covered.

Quote from @Jacob Kurian: The pictures didn't make it.Sit down and contemplate what could be happening.

You may want to look at concessions to help cover costs or buy down your rate to a comfortable payment. 

That did help me get a clearer picture of the full process.

One thing I'm trying to do is to test different cover photos to see which ones draw a greater % of click-thrus (which seems like a reasonable thing to test).I'd like to be able to view the Airbnb stats to see, for each cover photo I test, things like what % of people click through on it.

The buyer would need to show solid financials also of course (good credit, experience operating rentals, proof of funds for down payment and adequate reserves to cover any unexpected cap ex).

What will the reports cover?

Also when it came time to pick the finish products (tile/stone/fixtures/etc) I would request getting the manufacturer, the model #, sku#, picture if possible...everything.
