Sadly Renters have no concept how expensive homeownership is or how numbers truly pan out .

I was sincerely shocked to understand that there are whole large sections of the roof from the attic ceiling that are just exposed tin---no wood or insulation at all, where it would be needed most.

He installed the unit with a couple of his crew members around July/August and there have been issues such as the heating unit dripping into the drip pan and overflowing causing a 4x8 whole in one of the finished bedrooms, a drip line placed above our electrical box, an electrician coming out to redo the wiring to the units because it was done incorrectly, and now that it’s cold we haven’t been able to get the heater to work.

So that will be interesting to see how it pans out.The cash flow potential from STR's in certain areas makes it's undoubtably an attractive option for many investors (myself included).  

Therefore, when I replace one, I place it inside one of those large drip pans.

Since the shower is existing and not brand new they will want to re-do the shower pan to make sure it wont leak.

A cool map that could pan around with darker colors for lower cap rates would be interesting.

I'm also accused of spending too much much time with leads that don't pan out right away.

Still you are going to have to include costs for furnishings, linens, pots and pans, etc in your feasibility analysis.

I guess the tin ceilings helped to keep the fire from spreading to the second floor.
