The people in the room are the people you do business with they have the deals, the money, the services, the knowledge, the legal help and everything else you need to do a deal.You could try to make those connections here on BP, but nothing beats going to a meeting and talking live and face to face - you might event get to meet Andrew, he speaks from time to time - or all those vendors - we had 40 of them in a room last month just for everyone to come ask them questions.So find your local group - where ever it is - find or join several. 

We are looking at B/C class neighborhoods where there are investors flipping and there is some room for growth.

Huge vaunted great room ceiling. 

For the tack strip issue, I would consider adding a baseboard molding around the room.

Here are my thoughts--you can usually charge more when you rent by the room.

I also plan on moving the master bedroom (currently upstairs) to the other ground floor bedroom, and making the upstairs bedroom a "guest room."

And total kitchen and dining remodel.

How do I modify a residential lease to a create rent by the room leases for each occupant?

I suggest all new investors do a HH rent by the room. if you read the books above youll see why.Have fun!

Hi folks,Does anyone know of platforms other than AirBnb that allow to rent out private rooms as an STR?
