The university town does not have many places for short-term rental (never enough for events in town -- during the year and especially in summer when they have a few big festivals, including a music fest), so short-term rentals are a plus there.   

This site is an instrumental learning tool for all investing types in the real estate investment space.

On the top of the instrument you will find a MERS Mortgage Identification Number (MIN).

The smoking tenant use to complain all the time about the tenants next door (their music is too loud, their kids are talking too loud, their car is parked in front of my side).

Students may complain about the baby, but many students study while music is playing and there are several other annoyances.

As a Realtor I love using Alexa devices for music throughout the home when doing an Open House.

@Timothy Church and @Brittney Stewart , both investor real estate agents and have been instrumental in my real estate knowledge gathering about Galveston.

I will tell you the same thing I have told my music major nephews.
