Take it from me, if you can cut your loses further by paying cash for keys I wpuld do it.

We cut the grass and found the house open in a few places so we went in and found building supplies etc but obviously no recent activity.

Its a very cut and dry explanations for how to apply for, and run a, STR.

You might do well cutting your teeth on a smaller deal.

The other is telling me to put in the kitchen cabinets first and cut the floors around the cabinets. 

The fees generally cut out most of your cash flow and some don't even allow rentals.

With simply adding a wall in one bedroom then cutting out a door in the hallway would add a bedroom for us (somehow sticking a closet in there).

I thought this issue was resolved it is not resolved now I had to have a wall rebuilt that was ate up with mold luckily I have caught the water early this time and cut the drywall back so the only mold food is the bottom wood beam. 

After putting a lot of thought into it, I have decided to cut my hours down at my W2 job and take the leap!

will the realtor cut me a check or will the mortgage company cut me a check who and how do i get paid ??
