Best of luck—sounds like an exciting journey ahead!

Hi Thu, congrats on going into escrow—exciting times ahead!

Some high and lowlights:- I had one tenant that brought German cockroaches in and then blamed it on me- Same tenant asking if her daughter can visit but failed to mention it was 5 more very noisy people- another tenant having constant loud arguments with his gf- tenant saved some of my stuff when the house flooded due to a pipe burst and another time during a monster rain storm.

You're already ahead by putting yourself out there.

Being able to A/B test MTR at the same time would allow you to know if you can convert the STR to MTR if you ever want to move out and keep the property.As for the net negative house hacks - I always like to remind people that shy away from a deal because they aren't making money that they are usually still coming out ahead if they are spending the same or less than they would on rent.Great last point.

I would go ahead and set one up.

A contact of mine has been thriving with STR investments in suburban Chicago, targeting guests visiting for conferences.

But choosing a head not to be on one or two may turn out to be the one that gives you activity

I visit Arizona and enjoy visiting.  

What tools or strategies are you using to stay ahead of the game?
