I'm hoping someone will clarify...RentsAdvertising / Auto & Travel / Cleaning and maintenance / Insurance / Legal / Repairs / Supplies / Taxes / UtilitiesMortgage interestDepreciationFor long-term rentals...what would be an example of CoGS?

There’s no world where I get on a plane to travel to a cabin in the smoky mountains in the US southeast.

You could do long term or travel nurses since more HOA's have verbiage not allowing leaves under 30 days long.

@Wesley SherowI love the exterior brick! 

Use those points for travel or fun.

They plan to sublease to professionals like traveling nurses (2-5 months) and short-term families (we're near Disneyland).

My wife and I are remodeling a 1940s bungalow-style home in St Petersburg, and after several months of interior work, we need design help and drawings of the front exterior for our contractor to gain permits from the city and move forward with the project.The original front entrance of the home was covered with an addition built by previous owners, and we'd like to boost curb appeal and value by adding a driveway, front steps, a new door with sidelights, and an overhang jutting out from the gable with columns. 

Today I was approached by someone who is offering me around $1800-1900/month to rent the property from me to run a short term / medium term rental out of it, primarily for traveling nurses or other business people.

Adding more bedrooms, new floor plan, new kitchen, floors, exterior paint, landscaping, and pool rehab.

And then we also get families visiting college students (we have 3 large ones like Duke), and tons of travelling nurses (our medical industry is large here).
