The outcome of this investment has been the opportunity to save the majority of my income at an enhanced rate while short term rental income covers the majority of my expenses.

So far, new backyard fence, new floors w/molding throughout & fresh, colorful & textured paint throughout What was the outcome?

The biggerpocket is actually one of the tools that enhance this widening gap because BP helps people to invest in real estate lol.Just image 10 years ago only 1 out 10 houses are investor's house,now it's 1 to 5.

They'll use a thermal camera to do your building envelope assessment and then recommend enhanced insulation, sealing gaskets, duct repairs, etc.

It's not possible to see pipes inside the walls or ceilings, so it would be easy for an inspector to miss this.Cut open the ceiling and remove sheetrock: $100Repair leaking pipe: $200 - $300Patch sheetrock, tape, texture, and paint: $1,000There is no excuse for not giving you a written bid.

Currently used as semi truck parking, will enhance operations, install gate, lighting, etc.

The garage and bsmt are "bonus" sq ft and enhance the property when comparing it to others to the point where it could make it more atractive...and sell/rent before the others.

What I know can only be enhanced with someone who can raise capital and has far more experience than I do.

We plan on putting up a nice textured vinyl film, to keep light coming in and privacy from the view at the street, but also so guests don't have to look out and see grass (or snow) right in their face.The steps are not as severe as they look in the photo, but there are 14.

We started out by renting out a bedroom upstairs but after the first tenant we thought about ways to enhance the house hack, so we decided to close in the bedroom/bathroom downstairs and add a kitchenette to convert it into a studio apartment.
