During Covid, out of about 230 properties, five tenants moved out because they could not pay the rent.Five evictions in 15 years.The average annual maintenance cost is between $300 and $400, excluding the occasional water heater or air compressor.Below is a map showing where some of our client's properties are located and the green area is where we find the most conforming properties.

@Jack OrthmanIt’s common here in Coastal Orange County, CA due to the salt air requiring frequent painting and additional maintenance.

Then, you need to call in the appropriate vendor, repair person, or replace the appliance.For example, the policies/brochures that I have seen say (from memroy here) that for a forced hot air furnace they don't cover the burners, the fan / fan motor, the induction motor, the controller electronics, the ductwork, and the heat exchanger. 

As it stands, we have 4 houses we rent, and we live in a house that has an air bnb in the basement in the Washington DC area (rentals are all in Indiana). 

I'm a full time FAA air traffic controller and part time Air National Guardsmen.

I wouldn’t bother with the refi on home #2 I’d just take some of these proceeds and pay off the pool loan  Stop listening to any radio show that says your loan balance has anything to do with your taxes, they should be removed from the air. 

Owners of some conventional high-rises that were built to serve the corporate culture of the 20th century have responded to the trend by making the outdoor spaces they do have more welcoming, with gardens, coffee stations, decks and seating meant to reverse the air of exclusivity prized by builders and tenants in the 1980s.

I’ve seen this first hand in my 20 years in the Air Force.  

I want to use the loan to hopefully renovate a two to four unit property that I can Air BnB, as well as live in to reduce my personal mortgage payment.  

@Lou Vince the type of traveler that's looking for an air bnb style STR is not usually the same type of traveler that wants a hotel room.
