Quote from @Nathan M kiefer: Personally the hot tub is only a perk if we like the house so  as referenced here themed room and location win the day.hot tub is a blessing or a curse - either they are spotless or nasty and there seems to be no in between.We would never not rent a str because it did or didn't have a hot tub but if we had two similar places we would most likely book the property without the hot tub.we are different.

This home i m buying in michigan , it will be the 2nd home in my "Portfolio" of owning and maintaining 5 rental properties.

Quote from @Tammy M.: We hired a plumber (that we have used for years) to fix a tub spout leak and toilet repair.
