I recently toured a property in Phoenix where solar power and water-saving features cut operational costs by nearly 20%.6.

Getting a $150/nt on a 4-bed house, then getting $200 damage and having to haggle with Airbnb to get it paid out is just boorish.

During the renovation, I faced several challenges due to the home’s age and hidden damages, including ruptured plumbing, termite infestation, rotted wood, and lack of insulation.

Hi all, my LTR (Boston, built in the 1930's) has some cracks in the basement walls that I didn't think were too serious (owned for 10y, some water and flaking but mostly dry).

I would at least recommend you have them shop a policy for you.One thing we did note is that with hail damage to roofs, they seem to be decreasing coverage/increasing deductibles on that if ever needed.

However, I definitely recommend pictures any time a guest left damage or extra cleaning that will result in additional charges.

We've installed the Moen leak detection device, which detects leaks both hot water and cold water, and monitors water usage and gives you weekly reports.
