Fence is entirely within my property per a survey that I did.In 2023, I did some landscaping work and replaced the front part of the side fence (and paid 100% for the replacement).

For investors utilizing the STR strategy, what is your "gut feeling" for what the upcoming investment landscape will look like in 2025?

The most common benefits a landlord can get from an arbitrage agreement are: reduced vacancy expense, decreased maintenance costs (most arbitragers agree to fix any damage done by guests), increased rent (most pay a premium), reduced number of hours managing the property (aka it's more passive)Some less common benefits, but still worth mentioning: Using the property to host their own guests at a lower rate during the "vacation season", Revenue sharing, arbitrage managing landscaping, and other management tasks. 

Then it didn’t pass the city inspection because of landscaping debris and tree branches that fell in my yard, so I put in $5k more.After 6 months of vacancy, a new tenant moved in and immediately began complaining about everything.

With its inviting curb appeal and well-maintained landscaping, 17 Penny Lane stands as a testament to both style and practicality.

We added value by making a accent while in the living room, as well as refreshing all the furniture and decorations, painting the property, making a back door. back door out of the master bedroom because there was no way to get to the backyard without having to go through the side as well as some landscaping & new washer dryer.What was the outcome?

If you need help navigating this landscape, happy to have a call.

@Robert QuirozThe landscape has changed in all markets and the days of easy BRRRRs, 1% rule, 5% down, low rates, and strong appreciation are over.

Check with town permitting or GC if need additional parking, landscaping and rain drainage.

However, they told me that I have to rezone my property as commercial and that I have to comply with a bunch of different regulations like updated landscaping, parking, etc.
