So brainstorm the different options then pull the trigger!

It's was so easy for me getting started to get shiny object sindrome instead of locking in ONE STRATEGY, ONE NEIGHBORHOOD, ONE PROPERTY TYPE, ONE RENOVATION TYPE, etc. 

Very few people operate their LLC correctly and therfore this just gives them a flase sense of security.Moving into a LLC can also trigger the due on sale clause.

I chose to divide the two floors and put a locking door between the two at the stairwell.

I’ve seen deals get locked up in hours, so having my numbers ready ahead of time is key.

Try not to get locked in too long 4. we're not necessarily looking to go "all out" in terms of theming, but if we did, what kind of revenue does that bring/ROI can you expect, and which Renos for theming are best to do from a cost-benefit analysis, and what do they typically cost?

Pack their items, change front door locks and give new locks to other tenants.

Personally, it’s something I always expect from a short-term rental, and it can have a huge impact on your reviews.To make things easier for both you and your guests, consider smart tools like locks, outdoor cameras, and smart thermostats.

Running numbers, networking, and talking to local investors will boost your confidence when it’s time to pull the trigger.
