One golden rule I follow,if it takes a long time to fix/replace when it breaks, don't buy a cheap one.Imagine, this thing breaks in the middle of your peak season and the people who can come out to rebuild are 2 weeks out....It takes at least a day or two to build something like this even if you are super skilled.

If you have a rule, enforce it. 

The issue I see most is the cashflow gets crushed by HOA fees and the added headaches of having them tweaking rules etc.
