Example - could you increase ash flow by acquiring a SFH near a college campus but charge rent by the room?

I did this exact thing last time a tenant asked to install a TV mount on the wall of a bedroom.

Plan is to wall it off and convert to a 4br/2ba,  update existing bath and kitchen, new floors,  interior and exterior  paint.

After moving out, we re-stained the front porch posts with a darker stain (photo is pre-stain), replaced the front door, did touch-up painting on walls and trim, installed new keyed-alike locks on front/back door, and installed a vented bathroom exhaust fan that wasn't there prior. 

Yes, look at properties in Galveston, 6102 Sea Wall Blvd, Galveston, this complex allows STR's, we can do STR no seasoning DSCR loans if you are interested.

I immediately printed out your template message and taped to the wall next to my desk.

None on ceiling, walls, bathroom, etc.

Purchase price: $179,000 Cash invested: $15,000 Lived in the property for 1 year.Knocked down living room wall, replaced Hvac, floors and gutted and remodeled the kitchen, attic insulation, converted the living room and the dining area into rooms.

Finally, you will want to seal up the walls about 3' or so with Kilz or Shellac ( I prefer pigmented shellac as it seems to work better) Another thing you can do is go through with a black light at night and run it along the walls.

I hired them to rent out my condo/apartment and was told that a “professional photographer” would be coming to take pictures, instead a man came with 3 small children that were kicking our freshly painted walls/trim while he snapped pictures with an old phone.
