Inflation and the eventual rise in rents could provide significant cash flow advantages down the road.

I’m looking to turning this into a rental eventually.

After spending 25 years as a Software Engineering and Product leader, I’m now exploring the world of real estate investing (REI) and looking forward to learning from all of you.My goal is to leverage my current investments and savings to build a real estate portfolio that will eventually allow me to transition away from my current career.

If you make enough noise, and eventually do enough deals, you do make a good deal somewhere along the way. 

Maybe eventually they will allow the income just like short term rentals.

I had onboarded my tenants to TurboTenant not long before opening my accounts with Baselane, but Baselane does have a rent collection feature too which I may eventually move to.

They'd eventually find the account, but not before giving me a heart attack. 

Rufo, so you are violating the HOA rules so I don't think they would cover anything if it is the fault of your guests.This will eventually catch up with you and could result in some big fines so maybe think of selling this or converting to a LTR instead.

This lead me into Youtube and construction/renovations, which eventually brought real estate and investing onto my radar.

Prefer keeping this kind of stuff behind closed doors if possible and sorting it out without revealing dirty laundry.I would have been in the same boat as many other turnkey providers that are no longer around if I didn't focus on limiting how much business I take on.And even with my stupidly strict criteria, we still copped the brunt of the sword.Business is business and people are people, sometimes things just don't work out.It's a true shame but such is life.I always want whats best for everyone and for every deal to work out and for everyone to succeed.With the best intentions, mistakes are still made.Those that work hard and do their best, will also make mistakes unfortunately.Again, I sleep in peace and whenever I F@#$ up, it's an honest mistake so crucify me all you want.Thank God, never been sued and back round is squeaky clean and I intend to keep it that way.Less is more and when crisis does arise (It always eventually does no matter how much you prepare and do your best), we can hopefully rectify and do our best to fix.For example, just had an investor loose $50,000 on a deal and the next few deals we are working for free for this investor.We don't have to do this, we want to...Not sure how we would be able to accommodate such an instance if I had 50+ investors loosing that much so I guess my stringent on-boarding criteria has saved our A$$ for 10+ years now.Granted, I'm burnt out on folks and have pulled back even more from doing our "measly" 4-5 turnkey deals per month and have decided to focus on just building my own portfolio.Like I initially intended when I moved to this country in 2012.Thanks mate and keep being great
