I have been investing in Little Rock for over 20 years, been involved with over 700 BRRR and Turnkey remodels.  

After investing $150,000 into a full remodel we decided to keep it as an Airbnb with 5 studio master suites with their own bathroom and kitchenette.

How do you deduct "improvements" such as a room remodel in the rented unit.

But we have been lucky enough to not receive any issues with this house as when we bought it was fully remodeled literally everything was new. 

If you get a high-paying tenant in there, you can increase your odds of increasing the home's value.So you’d prioritize cosmetics upgrades, or a whole remodel, rather than “new construction”?

Chris has been very responsive for the last week, we walked through the property i invested in and its currently under remodel.

Buy a TLC or "ungly inventor" and use some of the cash to do some renovations before or after depending on if the properties were "Subject to" or would pass an appraisal and had high ARV potential for remodel or build out.

The potential for a loan call is higher and higher with sub to the more parties you involve if that makes sense.Trying to take down four homes sub to and then do remodels to them all, and then list them on short-term rental sites, and get full permitting and ok for not just the STR, but for your renovations and all prior renovations maybe done without a permit, while on subto, sounds like a pretty big mess to me.I would consult with a sub to specialist and prepare for the potential of having all the loans called at some point.

The aspect of buying and selling without the headache of repair, remodel or tenant issues is what I find the most appealing. 

Market appreciation helped but the remodel was a key component.
