Ben really does go into the type of detail that normally you would have to pay to learn.

You're likely way ahead of the normal BPer in your W2 or source of income job to enter these markets, and I understand if you don't want to share.

Lastly, the demand effect may even be more acute today than in a “normal” market because high interest rates have suppressed supply of available homes. 

Anything under $125 an hour is normal. 

Consider it normal.

In the event of a true disaster, just know you can't keep yourself whole.Basically, you're participating to save on pennies--via a normal insurance process--and to keep yourself exposed to any fat tails event. 

@Robert Finn What is normally the interest rate the two sides of a seller financing deal agree on?

My house, normally priced in the $888 range on VRBO, shows up on their Market Maker pricing at $23,148 or $28,735 a night. 

I've encountered several situations where tenants not only broke their lease but also caused damages, sometimes even leaving before the lease ended with damages behind.To clarify, when I mention damages, I'm not talking about normal wear and tear but rather significant repairs costing between $5,000 to $8,000, which don't qualify as vandalism for insurance purposes.In the past, property managers I've spoken to have often discouraged pursuing tenants for these damages, citing it as not worth the effort.Here are my questions for you:- Would you pursue the tenant?

In the end do you think this be more cost effective than going the normal route and purchasing one home to live in on the market now.
