I need to redo the roof of the house lift up the second floor, the entire front deck of the house, demolish the old stucco, And replaced a lot of rotten wood and messed up beams.does anyone have any recommendations? 

I just did a 21 square roof with gaf weatherwood architectural shingles and middle of the line underlayment for $4000 in materials delivered to roof and about $1000 in traded rent to a roofer tenant (which I only do on my 16 flat roof (3-1 and 2-1), ranch duplex properties).

The key to rent-by-the-room is establishing clear house rules so everyone knows how to get along, clean common spaces, and how to resolve disputes.

Who will take care of common area issues like lawn maintenance, roof leaks, etc.?

Renovations were mostly cosmetic but included a new roof, windows, siding, front and back porch and patio, new flooring, paint, kitchen, bathrooms, fixtures.

You’ll want to make sure you’ve got a solid team in place, and with repairs like a new roof and retaining wall, you’re looking at an investment that requires time and attention.
