I like to say it goes block by block.

that you in advance for your assistance,John Hi John,I tried to send you his contact here but I think it's blocked and I got a notice that posting contact details is prohibited.

I own a similarly sized 4-plex on the same street two blocks away whose appraisal dropped from 1.674M to 1.434M (14.3%) for 2025. 

If you want to optimize you could identify the busy season and make that STR friendly and then the rest of the year block it for longer stays.

Even though I don't have long hour blocks in my day where I can dedicate to REI education or execution, these little efforts each day have taken me further than I was just a few months ago and will continue to take me much farther in my REI journey.

I'd spend the money on quartz.You want to have a nice place so don't be afraid to spend where needed.I've heard horror stories of people putting in butcher block and people using it as a cutting board.

With new construction and renovations going on, on almost every block.

This leverages your current equity without draining your savings.

I have a house where the information bubble (assessment, stats, value) is a house two blocks away, even shows a street view picture.

Right now I can only tell by finding my properties on airbnb and looking at the calendars and what days are blocked of and assume those are bookings.
