It's a very clear example of free market dynamics. 

After a visual inspection, discovered that it was the floor and not the foundation.

I am currently setting up my investment dashboard to track my portfolio's performance (buy-and-hold) but am also looking into better understanding the underlying dynamics between the various return metrics.

I've purchased a couple of SF rentals and used a proforma spreadsheet to visualize the long term numbers.

The think what a Management can do what you can't do should be selling your rooms.If they don't apply dynamic pricing, additional marketing campaigns,... to get your vacant nights booked than the main benefit of a management company for Airbnb is not there.See their listings, are they booked out on Airbnb/VRBO or are they open.

Your first impression with a buyer is now digital and a great visual representation is crucial to marketing your property. 

Only OP knows his family dynamic and if they are family that can handle financial interconnections or not.

Hey there @Michelle Sanchez  welcome to the exciting dynamic investing world!

Hi Apurva,53 units -- It would be smart to talk to an Architect who does multi-family (In your general area) about the cost of doing a restyle as well as colors.Especially if you choose a Hardie (Fiber Cement type) product.With Hardie (Type) products, read the upkeep instructions, some require re-applying the joint sealers (factor that into your maintenance budget).Also with Hardie (Type) products there is a service life to the color...some come pre-colored, some your contractors must paint on site, (some require priming of cuts when installed)---talk to the Architect about the maintenance schedule and the CAPEX for this.Hardie makes big sheets of this for multi-family that Architects can use for visual effect and ease of installation.With 53 units--springing for an Architect to help with this would be intelligent.Good Luck!

No moisture testing was performed at this time.On 9/9/2022, they came back and did a Visual Inspection.
