I'd likely just agree to break the lease with a couple months of rent as a penalty rather than force these people to continue being tenants in my property....you never know what will happen to the condition of the property.

I am very interested to see experienced host's perspective.That's a great point, and I completely agree—many amenities are more about enhancing the guest experience, which indirectly impacts ROI through better reviews and repeat bookings.

I've spent the last 3 years nagging the city to sell me a lot next to my property so I can install a driveway and they've finally agreed.

When 2 owners own a property and they cannot agree on what to do with it.

Heck, I even agree with some of them!

I have to agree with Corby, "as is" should still allow you to do inspections for informational purposes only.

If that is agreed upon, hire a HANDYMAN (cheaper and better at drywall) and fix the problem.  

Agree, I've had the 1 to 4 day trends too like the moons aligned.

The resources and books you mentioned, like the BiggerPockets Ultimate Beginners Guide and The Book On Rental Property Investing, sound like excellent starting points.Prioritizing financial stability and eliminating debt is crucial, and I agree that a solid financial foundation is key to successful investing.

@Farley Youman you make many great points and I agree with you.
