If heat goes out in the winter we drop off several units, so they can be placed in different parts of the house - including every room with water like kitchen and bathrooms.We also have dehumidifiers, carpet blowers, shop vacs, puddle-sucker pumps, extra hoses, extra sump pumps with battery pack, squeegees, and portable AC units ready to deploy. 

@Vidit Maini Until you are an ESTABLISHED business I would recommend just keeping track of your mileage for deduction as opposed to spending the extra money to buy a “company vehicle”.

This provides extra peace of mind in case your upleg does not work out or the seller or lender will not deal.4) Truly retire for real estate ownership.

But it fits with the current portfolio I hold in that town and doesn't take much extra work for the returns I get.

The reality is the opposite - if it's not in writing then the PMC doesn't have to provide the service or can charge extra for it!

One effective strategy to maximize unit potential is to explore opportunities for adding extra units, especially in C-Class properties.

Otherwise, they have to eat the extra expense just like homeowners do.I would talk to an attorney and your insurance company.

Despite the extra requirements we had plenty of showing and very little vacancy. 

Although insulating the floor is a nice extra, it is not the primary way that cold gets into the house.

Think about all the extra time trouble and cost it takes to turn an ordinary house into a vacation rental...just my two cents though...
