Consider the aesthetics, privacy and reduced contact with passers by if there are animals involved.  

Quote from @Michael Baum: Hey @David Rutledge, the purchase of a small hotel is a very different animal than SFHs for STRs.Like @Luke Carl said, you will have to have some significant skin in the game.

Yes, note investing is a completely different animal, apples to oranges.I do know that PPR has gotten a bit into multifamily investing, but I don't think that is their focus.

NY is a different animal from Florida as the laws are very, very different.

Like others have said, you can't restrict actual service animals but disclose what is going on.I have yet to have someone with a service animal not tell me in advance.

Purchase price: $110,000 Cash invested: $30,000 Hobby Farm On 10 acres2300 sq ft house with 8 out buildings - Large Barn, Animal/hog barn, Mid-size machine shed (2) 25' x 35' / 30' x 50', Large Machine shed 60' x 60', Grainery barn, Entertainment Barn, 3 car garage What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

We as tenants had to acquire a shop vac and clean it ourselves, including dragging rugs full of filth and animal hair to the dumpsters.

I take a picture of their driver's license.I ask for phone numbers that accept texts and any alternate land or business phone numbers.I ask for the names and birth dates of anyone under 18, and ask if there are any service / emotional support animals, together with their names and breeds.I also ask for personal references, previous landlord contact info (and length of time there), employer contact info (and how long there, together with earnings), as well as the name and contact information for their manager / boss.

Don't use the word Pet, use animal.

It is a bit of a different animal.
