If you plan to sell it in the near future, I would focus more on the added value overall. 

Also if the whole property or the yard is fenced then an additional barrier fence around the pool itself isn’t required.

If you have the mobility to do so it's a great way to get your feet wet and learn along the way!!!! 

You're going to torpedo a tenant relationship over this?

Do you get a benefit for allowing the tenant to have the dog, such as a pet fee?

We have well over 100 Five Star Google reviews.

@Eric Gerakos In theory that's the plan.

We have worked with a business note buyer over the years and the yields are in teens. 

Is it true if I rent it out on Airbnb for at least 2 days before the 100 days are over, I should already be grandfathered in?

However what happens when the tenant vacates and now the unit has to be turned over/takes a few months to find a new tenant and during that same period of time the sewer line goes and you get hit with that $15,000 cap ex expense in addition to the vacancy and turn over costs.
