@Kyler J Sloan I don't know the climate of the area.

@Alanna Schroeder is right, I spoke with a realtor out there and they said the climate has changed for new Airbnb investors and it’s pretty hard to start one legally unless your property is owner occupied.

Then again, my condo is in an extremely dry climate (Arizona), so not sure if that has anything to do with paint deterioration or discoloration.Regardless of which way you decide to go, you're going to need the paint, so drop it off and see what they do (if it's option 1 with only minor damage).Every time a tenant moves out, I budget about 30 minutes to fixing up minor paint problems.  

I guess the rates and current climate have me thinking. 

Your tenants will reflect your economic climate.

Check out highcountrygardens.com , they have some of these grasses and describe which ones work for different climates.

In regards to the financing- 6% down and 6% interest is pretty good in the current climate.

The second thing I would try doing is getting that rate as low as possible, maybe aim for 20-30 bps lower on the rate with the current economic climate. 

Not to mention, in hurricane climates and seismic, container structure provide extremely additional structural support compared to conventional stick build.

Also, you may want to read up on the Growing Climate Solutions Act which recently passed in the House as a part of the omnibus package.
