At least in my area, it's cheaper to own a condo with the HOA dues than it is to pay for all the utilities, snow removal, waste management, maintenance, etc, that goes along with an SFR.

Are you going to send over a PM to remove your mechanicals in between each STR occupant if there's down periods with no occupancy? 

But ...The first thing I observed was the replacement cost portion of the quote, was, IMO, less than what it will actually cost to demolish the remains of the existing structure, pay for any hazardous waste removal following a catastrophic loss, and actually pay to replace the property in the event of a total loss, even though I used the quote feature to increase the replacement cost value by 20% (the maximum it would allow).

Removing a lien is challenging because you need the person who placed the lien to sign off to remove it.

I see that alot of Landlords are removing Appliances.  

We recently looked at a property outside our agents area (2 states away) and found a fee that was added which we questioned and were told it was a mistake and was removed . . . not sure if it was a mistake but be sure to read these new contracts BEFORE signing as things have changed since August.

Property appraised for 620k earlier this year after the ADU construction (appraised it to remove PMI) and I owe $375k on the mortgage + 59k fixed rate second.
