Quote from @Andrew Lawlor: I've been actively investing in short-term rental properties for the past three years, managing one live property and another that will go live in two months.

Sometimes people don't want to live next to people that have a bunch of garbage in their front yard, that are loud and obnoxious, that are creepy and weird, or maybe who knows maybe the house next-door or on the same block had a murder or a shooting happen at it and it is a well-known thing that people can look up. regardless, I think that due diligence goes into affect here pretty well.

Quote from @Jemini Leckie: Hello, I am trying to understand the Orem, city code to determine if I am allowed to rent my basement ADU that I currently live in two a couple cousins and their friend.

The lender does not live in the home and the agreement states that they be listed as loss payee.

I live in Buffalo NY and have not seen much going on at this location.

well if I ever make it to the Smokies to see what the draw is  I will rent a condo then :)  I am just guess but I suspect folks that go there want to be in the woods and hear the birds and maybe some local mtn views etc.. or some sort of privacy they never get at home out east were there is not very much public lands close to where they live in the big city. ????

Yep both enjoying the investment both short term and as a Longterm investment.  

We live just outside of city limits and therefore Coconino county.
