Thanks @Michael Plaks.

@Michael Shea I'm not a tax accountant, but I've done the rent by room strategy for over 6 years as a house hacker, and I've recognized rent by room tenants rents in the Schedule E part of the tax return.

Quote from @Michael Guildford: Quote from @Luke Masaschi: @Michael Baum I can also add that the houses on the water similar size are about a million bucks but my house across the street I got for 95k and now appraises at 175k so its a MAJOR price difference when it comes to lake front vs not. 

Like @Michael Baum said, SEO isn't a small-time game anymore.

Quote from @Michael Nelson: Hi Eric, almost any mountain town will do good in the winter or but you want to look for towns that have summer attractions.
