I understand it will be hard to match (if not impossible) the 10% yearly income and 5% appreciation of properties (those are my numbers).

They are often located in lower-income neighborhoods and may need maintenance or renovations.

This protects against potential claims and liabilities specific to the rental.For tax purposes, maintain clear records of rental-related income and expenses, allowing deductions for insurance, utilities, maintenance, and depreciation proportionate to the rental unit.

Alternatively, you could pause bookings for a short period to complete any bigger changes without rushing.It really comes down to whether you’re prioritizing immediate income or taking the time to make it 100% yours.
