Like someone else mentioned, doing a short term rental in a secluded basement that is very private and walled off is one thing, but sharing the same refrigerator, kitchen thermostat, etc. with a complete stranger seems like it will introduce more problems than what the money is actually worth.

But trust me, once you get the hang of it, it’s tough not to start eyeing the next deal.Julian & Jasper- Your trusted, investor-focused agent in Omaha, NE. 

My friend said his client nearly bailed when she found unexpected wiring issues behind the kitchen walls..apparantly the seller hadn’t touched that electrical since the Reagan era..but with a patient electrician who understood the local code and a carpenter who improvised a shelving trick in the diningrom, they ended up selling above asking.Flipping and building can get tricky, especially once you start thinking bigger.

My insurance company determined that they were not responsible because the problem originated it form INSIDE the wall which was the responsibility of the condo association.  

What if one person likes to host parties and is constantly bringing a bunch of friends over to hang out?

From what I’ve read in the Wall Street Journal, locking in a low interest rate now could be a smart move given today’s economic trends.

When we removed some of the wall we found that there was damage to the wood.

Everyone who steps inside is wowed by the space and in awe of the 2-story wall of windows surrounding a 140+ foot redwood tree.
