Stacy , if you want to make money with Airbnb the unit will need to have people provide 5* reviews .When your doing the garage rehab make sure you are designing a theme or design that will entice people to want to come back and of course leave great reviews With a garage you likely will need to go a little extra step in making it pop and keep the Benjamins rolling inId be happy to give you some guidance on themes or layouts for a free night stay :) Send me a PM Best of luck 

A broker or agent selling residential when they get that sale  of a house might make 4k,6k,10k plus in a pop or more.

They are very mom/pop style and couldnt really give any specifics on other expenses besides electric 30, taxes 270, water 250, so i estimated vacancy, repairs, cap ex, management, insurance, etc.

However, most occupied properties are sold by mom-and-pop investors that don't know what they're doing and the tenants are mediocre, at best.

Keep meeting and networking with other investors and eventually that right opportunity will pop up and you'll be ready to take advantage of it. 

Finish the build and pop some tenants in!

In a simplified nutshell; I’d have 3 SFHs with healthy positive net cash flow that can fund all expenses included a significant maintenance issue that might pop up + 1 SFH with zero cash flow, but expenses are funded.Thanks!

Do they just mean that my property popped up on a particular site and someone hit 'Like'?

I used to go down there a good bit...pop over to Laguna... what a great area.
