Some people are sending supplies (clothes, other needed items like school supplies, food for humans and pets, etc). 

With this property I racked up some credit card debt, around 20k and I need another 20k to pay contractors/supplies.

Also Chip and Joann Gaines and put this town on the map with their show on TV.

I have seen these circumstances; people die, go out and buy a car, lose their job, etc… Just my own two cents, I’m not an attorney, just play one on TV

I would still need to subscribe to a streaming service for cable tv, so cost savings wouldnt be much (or a wash), but otherwise it seems like it might be a viable alternative?

Prices a few years ago were based on expectations of (in addition to interest rates staying low): - Then current operating cost assumptions (like insurance cost expectations being flat)- A seeming disregard for record levels of new inventory / supply hitting the market- Extremely high inbound migration expectations which are likely to not be met, due to both natural disasters and the boomerang effect when people from California or the Northeast move to the American South and hate every minute of the humidity, the large and relentless swarm of insects, and the occasional hurricane. 

No guarantee this will continue but I see elected officials making policy mistakes that will lead to less development and that makes me believe constrained supply will continue to drive above average appreciation.John

If you supply the machines, I recommend increasing rent $100 or so to compensate for the purchase and maintenance. 

this is a direct relation to lack of inventory.. new construction on many markets is as robust as its ever been.. we have had spectacular years the last 3 years of course during covid was tough with supply chains but my 500k house I am now selling for 700k and my build cost have gone up by maybe 100k.. so record profits for us.. 

I will be living in the guest house, while renting out the main.Both units are without washer and dryer units, my question is, do I supply them in the main house; or let potential tenants figure that one out?
