I am a realtor in Kissimmee Florida area trying to help a friend of mine get into rental arbitrage for Air BNB.

I could also Airbnb it as an eco house as I will make sure air quality is optimal and buy organic mattresses but I'm not sure if Hagerstown would be a potential vacation destination.

Investment Info:
Single-family residence buy & hold investment.

Purchase price: $575,000

5 bed 3 bath house needed a rehab. Purchased, rehabbed, designed, and furnished totally remote! https://abnb....

Any suggestions - especially in regards to high value bills such as electricity during summer when air conditioning is on-  are highly appreciated. 

From air rights to zoning laws, it can get complicated but I believe with the right team of people, it’s possible to create opportunities where others didn’t see or gave up soon.  

The best advice he gave me was ,  If you can throw 10 grand in the air and let it blow away and it wont affect your life , thats money you invest . if you cant afford to lose it , dont invest it .

I am going to go a bit off topic here...I have been thinking about purchasing a rowing machine for a while now and this thread, and thinking about how much my physical activity has gone down in the last year (since I left the Air Force), is making me think about it even more.

You can make minor adjustments based on the type of appliances (dishwasher, clothes washer and dryer, air conditioning, etc.) and the size of the rental.

Change the air filters, make sure sprinklers are set and watering, landscaping done, check on cracks and leaks, visually inspect roof, also checking for pets, and how many people living there. 

Air DNA seems to indicate a low rate but I feel like the 108 corridor is exceptionally vibrant on the weekends.
