Damn this forum is much better than the fb group - thanks for the quick reply Brian, I'm a big fan of your book btw

One more thing to consider is getting professional photos for the MTR, can definitely help increase bookings IMO

The challenges are too numerous to outline here, a person could literally write a book.

How long have you rented and how much depreciation do you have on the books?

i was just reading over it and looks like you cant rent it shorter than 7 days and looks as thought it needs to be zoned b1 and up but anyway in my opinion str wont make any money in the area the occupancy rates just aren't there to cover the costs. i mean if someone what's to do it by all means have at it but im out.fox lake is limited to i believe 60 rentals at any given time but again if you look at the Calanders of the existing listings they're just not booked very much  

Check your local meet ups face book groups, and REIA groups. 

Plenty of publications and journals to read on this, along with books and other print media.

They're all booked with large complexes repairing balconies.They also yellow tagged our railings as being too short.

That made all the stress and anxiety worth it... the difficult tenants/roommates, constant noise, roommate drama, and lack of peace and privacy.This approach reflects the balance between comfort and profitability that Craig Curelop discusses in his book, The House Hacking Strategy.

I manage my books currently, but since we bought a new property and I have a full time job, it seems like a lot to keep up with the books.
