If you’re going to be investing in design and SEO anyway, waiting 6 months to launch wasted 6 months of a/b testing, search engine results and more.

Currently I'm working for the Navy as an engineer.

Also maybe add in some tech/engineer real estate guys as well ^__^ 

I ended up getting an engineer's report.

I am assuming because I have no construction or engineering background yet, or maybe I am taking the wrong approach.

Not a huge deal, however, if there was any sign of it I would have to pay an engineer to come out to recommend repairs....(...$$).

Lots of experience with it, long time engineer, I have in the past made my own drawings/permits and gotten them approved by reading through city regs/docs.

The search algorithms differ for each platform, but for Airbnb the main factors include response time to inquiries, instant book turned on, pricing, and reviews.As others have mentioned, I would look into other platforms/websites that focus on corporate rentals.

So I design it myself first, and only after I feel that I have truly maximized the project do I then send it out to and Architect & Civil Engineer for working plans.

I'm a licensed architectural engineer with 8 years of experience practicing mechanical, plumbing and fire protection design in Baltimore, DC and the surrounding areas.
