I personally would stay away from condo-tels as they will be even worse and you'll have less opportunity to cash flow. 

I personally don't mind cooking on electric but I will say that cooking on propane is different than what most people know which is natural gas.

Mediation is a process in which the parties meet with an impartial person who helps to resolve the dispute informally and confidentially.

Also, long term, I expect Sac will enact tougher restrictions on STR, given the intense housing crunch we're experience, so I personally don't expect that to a be a good long term strategy.

I would personally put them in notice just because they never tried to communicate it on the back end of fixing it.

They do require that person to have no assets, so a house in her name could be problematic.

The FMR for a 6 BR house is over $1,800....one person's trash is another person's treasure!

Keep in mind, you can’t use personal funds or your home's equity to directly fund the SDIRA investment, and all property expenses must be paid from the IRA.

I financed this property using down payment funds from 403B and a local commercial bank. 15% down from personal funds. 85% down from community commercial bank. 3yr balloon, 20yr amortization, 7% interest rate.
