Same thing for cameras: I like old style trail cameras with a memory card (for rural properties personally) but if you have wifi onsite, or if you're willing to sign up for monthly fee (services for $5/month and up) the ones with a sim card are getting really affordable nowadays too. 

Plus the added tax benefits to support my current situation ($120k a year as a "single" person with "0" dependents Uncle Sam definitely gets his cut) A home my family and I could use in the off seasons on vacation plus creating a unique experience with lifelong memories for our guests sounds great to me, regardless of whether it cash flows.

Since I was a little kid my parents have been flipping houses on the side and some of my earliest memories consist of sitting on the floor of some random house while my parents painted the walls.

And, we take all of the good holidays for ourselves(memorial day, labor day, 4th, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Fish Rodeo)+  It is a great family vacation area, not like Orange beach with the endless condos, strip malls, etc. 

Pros to this are I could sell with more money in my pocket than I could listing it, cons are that I lose my VA entitlement for 2 years, which to me isn't a huge deal, as I don't have enough entitlement left to buy house at my next duty station anyway.Thanks, and Happy Memorial Day!

One of my fondest memories was taking my 10 year old son and 12 year old daughter to do some demo on a kitchen.

The Thursday before Memorial Day weekend.

Hope everyone enjoying Memorial Day weekend.

I am in the process of readying my first senior memory care home in Ridgefield Connecticut.

A year ago, Memorial weekend - as well as all of June, was completely booked at a minimum of $299 per night.
