I did just have my first GVR guest (arriving 1/14) ask me for one additional bath towel and face towel for each of the 3 guests.

Her husband is also a GC who can help build additional units as needed if you get something that can fit an ADU.

Additionally, the supply of homes for sale is constrained because of this and will be for some time putting upward pressure on prices in most markets.Thinking about renting your house in Seattle would be wise as someone else will pay the mortgage down, and rents and the value of the property will go up over time.

Does anyone know a property manager that supports small self-storage rentals in addition to residential rentals?
