I know it sounds like I'm splitting hairs but some banks write HELOCs in their residential department....which won't write Investment Properties.

By showing off these numbers I am affirming that it would be relevant to any of this.

Thanks for the affirmation.

So when you add up the 'homeless' and the 'unsheltered' you actually do get 51%....Look, we can split hairs all day long and argue "well by this metric it looks...." blah blah blah..... 

They are durable, but catch hair and dog fur more than the Bassets.I would avoid faux leather.

And now, Armando has.... well from best I can tell he still has great hair.

STR income will always be dependent on who I managing the property, how nice the finishes and furnishings are, and the actual location of a property within the given city.With my STR in Destin, numbers are more or less the same as last year, perhaps down just a hair. 

One of the reasons I asked the question is that it seems strange to me that a property management wouldn’t take anything upfront if they inherited a house that wasn’t ready for rent .Our property management also does the cleaning ( deep clean over 4 days was $1000 but they had to deal with some nasty pet hair , fleas etc)and that included some cover up paint etc .One lesson learned here is every contract with owner : property management varied greatly it seems from what is needed .But moving forward - I feel that $500 a month on a $2100 a month property is too high once it’s rented - unless endless problems persist of course ..thanks for your insight!
