The house is always a terrible mess, windows are always closed and shades are always down and shut, never got a notice about mold, and I'm sure I mitigated any chance of mold.

@Robert Mcquillan unless you are living in the property in Colorado you can't do the mitigation yourself.Account Closed so generally speaking, I want to have the asbestos mitigated in property I own but not in every case has it happened.

You may be able to find a law firm which handles both foreclosure defense and probate issues and perhaps mitigate the total expenses.  

In fact, the game was not about making money but rather mitigating the losses.  

But if costs to hire a professional to mitigate damage are still under the security deposit amount, I suggest you go with that route as that provides a third party to verify that there are damages present and cost you money to take care of them vs. tenant perceiving you as making up damages and repairs which you supposedly repaired.

Additionally if you have a windstorm mitigation inspection report or devices you can receive a discount on the premium.

I don't follow your advisory, if you follow the laws, pay your taxes, and buy a place that allows for these types of daily rentals, the risks are mitigated.
