Every situation is unique although I prefer to self manage.

Being that I'm new to it, though, I'd appreciate hearing unique experiences from anyone with valuable information to share.Thanks!

The rental had ratty furniture, a record player prominently featured in the marketing but it had no speakers, missing basics items in the kitchen, lots of drunks in the concrete hallways that reverberated right into the bedroom at 2am, a strong odor of urine outside, and more.We have super hosts in this forum that have hundreds of 5-star reviews and are masters of the craft, but I look at their rentals and see they don't have any artwork on the walls, decor is basic, they do nothing to make the guest feel welcome, etc. 

They offer renters a unique option that feels like home but without the long-term commitment.A developer friend of mine in San Diego recently completed a BTR project on a former industrial site.

It offers unique advantages like equity building, tax benefits (e.g., deductions and depreciation), and an inflation hedge, as rental income and property values often rise with inflation.

Some houses have so many decorations, misc. items around the house it is difficult to notice when things go missing over time.Hope this helps! 

In general I am anti-arbitrage but for something so unique it may make sense. 

What's unique about my property is that it has an Arcade Room with Pacman and streetfighter arcade machines along with a popcorn machine.  

The banking features are truly unique and best in class.

There's a world of possibilities out there, and each one offers unique benefits.You might find that single-family homes are readily available and could be easier to manage or sell if the need arises.
