I promise you it is cheap for a reason and will only cause problems.First of all, caulk in a bathtub will never last.

The idea of it sitting empty caused me emotional damage. 

The crash caused significant structural damage, and the driver fled the scene, later reporting the vehicle stolen.

But if they wanted less control in investments---go the route of equities, fixed income like tbills or CDs, mortgage notes syndicators, REITs, possibly RE syndicators but do your diligence especially now, and even crypto cause that's an investment with little control.

I've collected thousands in security deposit from my guests who've caused damage.

Too many payments can cause a paperwork nightmare.

If you could a way to tokenize good deals I might be on board but I don't want anything to do with the distressed income deals you will likely be able to source unless I had ownership rights and could fix the problems causing the distress.

I do find it humorous though that thinks the recent bought of high inflation was caused by the current administration. 

Matt--what actions/behaviors did you observe that caused your "spidey-sense" to tingle on this prospective tenant?

I do have folks that don't book because of that.That is a good thing as not understanding the distance to get places will create bad blood and cause those 2 and 3 star reviews which no one wants to see.Like @John Underwood, our place isn't cheap so we don't get the folks that destroy places.The bottom line is that you are renting out an expensive asset to strangers for 3-10 days or whatever.
