So I would caution everyone to make sure the replacement cost for your improvements will realistically cover your actual replacement cost in the event of a total loss.

We then use our money for the improvements.

@Nate Pucel The depreciation basis for a rental property includes the purchase price plus the cost of renovations and improvements that add value or extend the property's life.

We’re using a well-known Columbus CPA firm this year and for a similar price the work has been better, and the engagement is night and day improved. 

I have improved my vetting skills quiet a bit in the last year, so things are more stable now.

Owner needs cash for some improvements, but if he refis interest rate is 11%.  

@Paulette Midgette I haven't looked at that statute in a while but I would check to see if the Home Improvement Consumer Protection Act ("HICPA") applies to this situation.

You may borrow an additional $35000 for hard cost improvements.

Only improvement would be a highlighted color-coded map to visualize...

You also have to be super detail-oriented, focused on continuous improvement regarding the property and guest experience, very in-touch with what it's like to be a guest at the property (and a cleaner of it as well), and focused on technological tools and opportunities.
