A turnover means repairs, painting, cleaning, marketing, vacancy time, and lost rent, so a small discount is often a better financial decision than churning tenants every year.There’s a lot more to consider, but these are some key lessons I’ve learned.

I'm going to be checking my BP more regularly.

We successfully set up the co-hosting on Airbnb where I receive the agreed upon 18% + the cleaning fee.

Transparency, regular communication, and clear milestones have been critical to making this successful.For those of you who are considering working with private lenders or want to improve your deal structure, I hope this gives you some food for thought.

I’d suggest you dig into the numbers, compare it to what a regular sale would give you, and talk to someone who specializes in this type of deal.

If the unit is empty, change the locks, clean it, and get it rented.

.), but the bedrooms are regular keys, as @Jonathan C. mentioned for the front door, the unit is set up to send me an email when the batteries are low. i also have another student rental ( 8 rooms, 2 entry, 2 units + utility room) one master key and each bedroom has its own key that will get students in the entry, there unit, and there own bedroom. had a locksmith do that one. cost me a few hundred dollars with keying and supplying the locks ( 13 total ). i like both setups but may look into the landlord locks again for my 3rd student rental i just purchased.

More traps, patch up holes, tell your tenants to be extra clean when dealing with food.
