Roku TVs have a built-in guest mode for exactly this purpose. 

With those costs a new build with the purpose of selling is likely not worth it. 

Though it may cash flow well based on their current debt service, when you compare the income it produces to the equity they have is it actually even a good investment for them from an ROI perspective or would they be better off liquidating and redeploying?

@Pixel Rogue The cash out proceeds should be for business purposes such as investing in another RE project. 

I have one tenant who is a god send compared to most, he accomplishes nearly ever repair I need, even did an HVAC unit. 

Compare that number to the odds of being struck by lightning, and then act accordingly. 

I've painted more walls, ceilings and trim work than I could ever count in my lifetime and *I* suck compared to professional painters, and most of my paint jobs could pass for lower-end professional jobs. 

U have to find developments that are purpose built for investors..

Durham tends to offer slightly better cash flow opportunities compared to Raleigh, especially if you’re targeting neighborhoods that are up-and-coming but still affordable.

In addition, condos tend to not appreciate as fast in value compared to single-family or multi-family homes.
