Respect their time by giving them the information they need to include or exclude your listing quickly, and then earn their respect by answering all correspondence quickly.Making life easier for the frazzled person trying to do their job is its own reward.

Given your limited cash and high DTI, refinancing after boosting rents might balance risk and reward best.

The risk reward return is not worth it.

STR can provide more cash (potentially), but its a high risk high reward strategy - if you invest in the furniture, staging, photos, and management or self manage, there is a lot of time and money invested.

The bottom line is, the strategy can open doors you didn’t even know existed.. it’s not just a tax hack, it’s a wealth-building strategy that rewards a little patience and a lot of foresight.If you’re floating around Chicago, Omaha, or even dipping your toe in the Phoenix or San Antonio scenes, I’d love to help you navigate this territory.

I definitely agree that rent by the room is awesome for increasing cash flow - again, it does come with it's headaches but with the higher risk comes higher reward (I've been doing it for almost 3 years now, it's really the only way to make the numbers work with little cash down on properties).From my personal experience, talking to others at meetups, and reading this post, I think there's definitely demand for specialized rent by the room property management.

Adjust return based on holding time and risk reward.  

Also F is very important because it shows you are focused on small things that can have big rewards over the long-term and you aren't complacent.

It was no doubt a disastrous storm and still reeling.

Risk vs reward.
