You are the one earning the money...the car is yours.I keep a mile booklet and have found, since I invest in southern MN, that the miles rack up to a very nice sized write off for the LLC. 

Don't let them continue racking up costs that will never be recovered.

After the intro period, pay off the card in full.Now, during these 15-18 months, the cash you would have ordinarily used instead of racking up the credit card debt can be put in a high yield savings account, treasury bills, CD etc. to earn you around 5%.

Odd and a bit nerve racking to see rent go down in a Market.

I just purchased my first single family rental and a nice large (12x16 ft) wooden shed was included in the backyard.

We have resigned to the fact that all sheetrock and insulation and flooring needs to be pulled out of the house -- even then we are concerned that the smell is in the actual wooden studs and attic.   

If you are that back in times “cabin”, old “wood style” home with ugly fabric couches and brown wooden walls, it is hard to charge good money no matter if you are long term or short term rental.Consider accepting pets - only 40% of the cabins in Big Bear Lake do.Provide a hot tub or see if you have space for indoor jet tub - only half of the listings have the amenity.

I love the wine rack over the frig, great touch!

Do you have a recommendation for a keypad type for a wooden gate?

No placement fees though, since that would rack up for the owner with more than 3+ tenants per year.
