Consider that interest rates are now double what they were in 2020 with investment properties (especially a four-plex 6.5 at least) and the new cost of the buildings.

I use buildium which is a good value and I think the integration with tenant turner alone saves triple the hours needed to be worth the cost.

Target neighborhoods like Brewerytown, Kensington, and Point Breeze, where demand and ARV potential are currently strong.Your skills in renovations will give you a significant edge in controlling costs and boosting returns.

If private companies continue to provide the insurance, I suspect we will see further increased premium costs which will need to be reflected in the rents tenants pay (all tenants: LTR, MTR, STR).  

If the RV is not permanently affixed and retains mobility, it is considered personal property and depreciated over 5 years under the Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS).

To Sum it up, its a good idea if you can exceed the cost of capital (higher rate than your cost of debt) with what you earn on your heloc/debt you pull out and invest.The question is how much gains above is enough to substantiate the risk of your variable interest rate, well thats up to your personal investing criteria.

It is fair to express your disappointment that they exceeded the cost target you gave them. 

And while short-term rentals are the big draw here, there’s also growing demand for mid-term rentals from snowbirds and traveling professionals, as well as long-term housing for the increasing number of permanent residents.Yes, higher interest rates are a factor, but the strong rental demand in the Panhandle often helps offset those costs.

Using LVP was a smart choice—it holds up well when wet and is cost-effective to replace.

Good points on passing the utilities costs to the tenants and eliminating property management.
