Travelers has a home sharing/furnished rental product that I use for mid terms.

Everyone thinks that replacing a light bulb should cost $5, meanwhile you have to send out a qualified person on payroll with benefits on a company vehicle, who has 30 minutes travel both ways and then Home Depot ran out of that special light bulb.. 

Generate my own personal estimate for each line item and ALSO a % confidence I have in that estimate.

I finally paid a guy $2K to empty it and clean it up a bit and sold it through a wholesaler for $10000 to a young, big-talking investor from out-of-town who was positive that all he needed was some basic repairs (that he confidently told me he knew all about).To date, that property is still under renovation.

I know how to structure deals so I have some (even if low) while I am confident of vast appreciation.

Or should I be more confident?

I'm excited to get started on this project and I'm confident that I can do a successful flip with the right team of people around me.

Mid-term rentals to traveling nurses or other healthcare professionals could be a lucrative niche for your househacking strategy. 

I'm hoping someone will clarify...RentsAdvertising / Auto & Travel / Cleaning and maintenance / Insurance / Legal / Repairs / Supplies / Taxes / UtilitiesMortgage interestDepreciationFor long-term rentals...what would be an example of CoGS?

There’s no world where I get on a plane to travel to a cabin in the smoky mountains in the US southeast.
