Reminds you as an investor how close you really are to the bottom! 

There is a rent estimator at the bottom of these very post.

Glass block is a great idea.....I've used that and it is a good solution.I also second the idea to look inside the wall, if you have mold inside there, that could be huge trouble.And if you keep the window and have a tile trim, definitely make sure that the bottom 'sill' piece has a slight tilt to it so that water runs into the shower.Windows inside a shower are always a problem, it's just not a smart idea.

I did purchase a large 6/3 home with plans on splitting it into a top/bottom duplex.

A typical small multifamily deal for us is to acquire a shell between $100K to $300K- (2 to 4 unit); Spend $200K to $300K to renovate- then rent each unit between $2000-3500 per month. i encourage investments outside of the major metropolitan areas but was advising this first-time investor to not forget the bottom line ROI. 

Bottom line is you need to consider what an agent can do for you rather than what they cost. 

All are necessary, honestly we did our direct book site to piggy back off VRBO, air and a local site we use. 90% of it is repeat bookings that like to communicate with us through that direct book site vs some protected site like air.we send out a mass email to all our guests using hostfully email capture and offer 5% off the lowest direct booking price which still nets us more than we get for the same booking through the platforms.we do all of it, direct, local and the platforms, we continue to have good success and our clients/guests love it.as far as the price for the website development- to be honest we had a great year one year and needed a write off so that was a factor as well. bottom line is people find you in so many ways, we don't want to eliminate any of them.

In most cases quality PMs wont do super low level areas, leaving incompetent bottom feeders.

A report in my view include roll-ups (sums) at the bottom of columns. 

Hi @Kay Nemen, the bottom line is that you probably won't know if you made a good decision when hiring a PMC until it's too late.
