Andrew... thank you for the write up!

My understanding is that you will not get the tax credit and could only write it off and a regular capital expense.

Hello Everyone Im writing this post to see if theres any thing im missing in my thought process.

I actually need this type of lockbox too, but I'm not drawn to the style of the IglooHome lockbox.

A door lock doesn't function, four cracked windows, a broken door handle...those sound like issues the PM should have found during the inspection.When you get a lot of repair requests from a new tenant and they seem to be legit, I would recommend they spend a week or two getting settled, write down all the issues they come across, then send your contractor to handle everything at once.

Jonathan, great write up man!

I will write a blog about the process once we close!

In that situation, would you just try to find someone trustworthy enough to give you a referral fee say, instead of a formal contract assignment and have them just write up the offer so you aren't tied to it?

Fees should be clearly stated in writing, easy to understand, and justifiable.

The writing on the wall tells us Airbnb will be the biggest player in this space very soon (if they aren't already), and I want a good presence on there, with great reviews and Superhost status.Just my take.
