This run though focusing on zero debt instead of drinking the refi to you die cool aid I believed prior to 08 .. we can now sleep well at night compared to those days.

I just head up and tell the dock guys and I leave with 10 or so.Sometimes guests take them with them as they are pretty cool and I just have more sitting to put out.

Cool idea.

Building a sport court will run like $30 grand, but would increase your rental value. a 6bedroom 4 bath house with a sport court, hot tub, fire pit, mini golf, arcade etc. will most likely crush it because it's cool.

So our standard two story is 9ft on both levels. our single levels are 10ft and higher with large vaults and really cool beams in the great room and the primary.. 

Weather - you need to make sure tenants are warm in the winter and cool in the summer.

When we first get down there it takes about a day for the air conditioner to cool the inside down. 

The definition of “livable” or “finished” space can be surprisingly specific.In many markets, including here in Arizona, appraisers and agents generally want the space to be finished in a manner consistant with the rest of the home and serviced by a more permanent heating and cooling source.

I also just use word processing to create a guide book. 3 ring binder with sheet protectors.I put in all sorts of things like local menus, maps to cool places etc.

I think it's super cool but I'm having a little trouble completing the puzzle - I know it makes sense, but I'm not quite there.
