I've tried to eat before going to a restaurant to save money... but what ends up happening is I buy food at the restaurant because it smells so damn good, and end up bloated as hell on the couch afterwords, because I ate 2 meals lol.

Understand that in each of these coverage types above, the unit owner and the renter need their own coverage for ANY contents they own and bring into the unit (couches, tables, clothes, jewelry, etc.). 

This home is now a rent by room rental, creating significantly larger cashflow and allowing me to sleep on the couch when I visit Austin every few weeks.

There is essentially a couch, a salon chair, and a bowl to wash hair.

Bad eggs or family members couch sleeping who are bad eggs must go immediately.

I believe the couch was FB marketplace.

I'd go with the smaller 300k range deal partnering with 1 friend, and offer a pullout couch or an air mattress in the cabin to sleep a few more guests.

It doesn't seem that far-fetched to sleep on the couch in the living room (or on one in a very large closet) and rent out the bedrooms.

This is my first experience as a landlord, and what a headache this one tenant has been.When the lease with a pair of tenants renting our condo lapsed, they never informed me that they desired an initial inspection, despite my offering of it to them in writing with about 45 days left on the lease.After they vacated, I had a brief list of things that needed to be addressed:The condo was much dirtier than when I initially handed it over to them (I hired a cleaning service to do a 'move-in' cleaning of the empty unit before they moved in).There was a nickel-sized hole punched through one of my floorboards with some kind of cheap resin patch job done to address it, this looked like someone jumped on a couch and put the foot through the boardThe carpets in both bedrooms where pretty dirty; not vacuumed and had an off smell to them.
