Sometimes the tenant just doesn't know about them or their situation limits their ability to apply.

Instead of buying existing properties and rehabbing them, the idea is to partner with a builder who constructs new rental properties, then refinance and rent them out. 

Good Morning,I recently moved to Maine from working overseas and am enthusiastic about the idea of flipping homes in the area!

It's very limiting to only be able to rent 3 months or more minimum.

@Jeff Nash may have a few great ideas for you!

If not, go with your idea of putting the thermostat in a control room.

Here is what the IRS says on the subject: Election for Husband and Wife Unincorporated Businesses A business owned and operated by the spouses through a limited liability company does not qualify for the election Only businesses that are owned and operated by spouses as co-owners (and not in the name of a state law entity) qualify for the election.

First of all treating rental income as a hobby is a very bad idea. 

Got any other ideas or use cases you’d like me to test?
