And you still get the same benefits in terms of tax benefits (depreciation is a beautiful thing), rental profits, principal paydown and appreciation. 

Also, real builders/experienced developers will often have a true technician, i.e. a civil engineer, architect, real estate attorney et al at least glance at the property info to make sure there are no major red flags.

Again, we are talking about unwarranted reviews, not true 3- or 4-star reviews.

I specialize in building and flipping properties, focusing on transforming houses into beautiful, functional spaces that create value for buyers and investors alike.With several years of experience in real estate, I’ve developed a strong foundation in market analysis, design, and project management.

The greatest profits are in properties that can be repositioned to a higher and better use, or appreciate the highest over time, or will throw off a TRUE cash flow of 20% per annum on total investment (cash + debt + capital investment). 

Like I said, the calculator is telling me it's possible on some that I see on market now but I'll have to see if that is true in reality when I run the numbers with a lender. 

While they are beautiful and get you top dollar, many come with tax abatement that expire in 5 years and will significantly reduce your cash flow once expired. 

Do I give up access to transportation, restaurants, cultural activities, doctors, emergency medical care, religious and business activities, vet care and maybe more, to live in the country on my ranch or on the beach in a beautiful country, or do I keep access to all those things and live in the city? 

Its sad, but true. 

Most people who make a ton on Airbnb hire out designers, put in flashy amenities, and create a true experience.
