I’m looking to raise $160,000 to cover the purchase, renovation, and activation of this new Airbnb property.

If I believe I can generate enough profit this year and navigate any potential inspections next year, I’d be comfortable moving forward—using the income earned to cover any necessary upgrades.An alternative exit strategy is to document the financial performance and sell the property as-is, highlighting its strong short-term rental income.Think through your next five moves, from best to worst-case scenarios, and make a decision that aligns with your goals. 

Since traditional agent training doesn’t cover investing, supplement your learning with books, podcasts, and investor meetups.Good luck!

Can try to reposition to Class B, but neighborhood may impede these efforts.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, but 15-20% should be used to also cover tenant nonpayment, eviction costs & damages.Tenant Pool: majority will have FICO scores of 560-620 (approaching 22% probability of default), many blemishes, but should have no evictions in last 2 years.

So it could take a decade to get to todays market rent. 2) it’s almost impossible if not impossible to non-renew a tenant, especially if you’re not an owner occupant. 3) As a seller, even if I could remove paying tenants I never would without a non-refundable payment from a potential buyer that covers all vacancies for 6 months if they fail to complete the purchase. 4) You MIGHT say as a buyer that’s worth it.

Pretty cool stuff and I just thought I'd share some pictures and be a resource to anyone trying to do this as well.

That means I'd be covering a significant shortfall every month.

Converting a garage means sacrificing covered parking, which could impact property value or tenant appeal in certain areas.

Then the rents would cover that payment plus the mortgage with cash left over.
