Whatever clever plans you would implement yourself, instead find yourself a good PM who aspires to be great and then shower your best ideas on them!

No slight of hand, clever BS.

It's also traditional for guests to bring their own linens and towels, although there are now linen rental services that will deliver and pick up (but won't make up the beds). 

That's very clever and a great way to stay organized.I've tried reaching out for a local mentor a couple of weeks back on here.

Upstairs Primary bedroom has a sitting area and bath has double sinks, shower/tub combo, linen & walk-in closet.

Chris, will you be paying other fees on top of that 40% commission fee (ie who pays for linens?

Just make sure you get the best bed and linens you can within your budget.

What I don't understand is how you can "foreclose for title", I thought foreclosing always forces the house to public auction (and the first position lienholder takes title only if no one else places a bid).Is it really possible to foreclose directly for title, completely skipping the public auction, with some kind of clever contract clause?
