If it’s a larger home that could see a dip in occupancy during those months it may be worth it to take the 15% cut but have it fully booked!

So my focus is to try to build a larger sum of money compared to if I just concentrated my efforts on making money in my country.

While 2300 sqft is on the larger side, it’s not necessarily a drawback, especially since you need to live in the property for at least a year.

It's kind of like a a guy who gets really excited about something touch really really fast and you can't understand a word he says sometimes you have to slow it down  I've also found that I'm not saying he is but I've also found that in my life I'm 61 years old a lot of hucksters do the same thing  because they know if you show energy and excitement in a presentation more people will sign up then if you're dry as a bone

Hi All,My wife and I just purchased a larger house on our block, and plan to keep our current home as a rental.

I ended up living here longer because I got into real estate full time and didn't have the energy to finish fixing up, but moved out a couple months ago and it's almost ready to rent out as 2 units for Airbnb's or mid-term.

The time, energy, and lifestyle capital can drain your resources when you need to visit, build your team, manage your team, and how and when to exit. 

It's going to drive you crazy and you've got bigger fish to fry... you're building your business and all the stress and energy you are pouring into this is taking away from that. 

@Rob Ibarra Converting non restaurant space into restaurant space can be fairly costly from what I understand due to the need for larger than standard water lines to service the building and a general need for grease traps and other restaurant specific infrastructure.My first question around going from abandoned auto shop to kitchen is zoning, could you even get the use approved, and then are their any environmental factors in play? 

The other thing is that when roots get in once, they can get in forever, and a tree cut down can still have root growth until all energy stored is exhausted.
