I'm of the opinion that a property that cannot create $15-20k+ per year in rental revenue is going to struggle keeping up with maintenance and repairs.

I applaud you for putting it out there but 1) maintenance/cap ex is far too low for a duplex 2) no PM. 3) vacancy at 1% will be challenging if achieving near market rent.

I haven't had a renter's insurance issue, but have done this for maintenance items.

You would be violating Airbnb's terms of service.

I think it's great as it includes warranty information for appliances, type of hvac filter, light bulbs and general maintenance etc

Financial Freedom Network I laughed at -- after reading the agreement, no comparable value for that monthly price -- 3 or so years ago, if value has changed now, my time-based disclaimer is as aforementioned -- and Legrand would do well to disconnect FFN from his name, as I believe FFN is now out-sourced, whatever.I empathize with you , Joe and the other responders, but when I read Legrand’s, and most of the other guru’s, contracts prior to trying a teaser product, it clearly stated in the agreement that if customer did not want the upgrade service for which the teaser/free product, free video, whatever, was being given away, then customer must cancel within the stated period of time, which almost always range from 30 to 90 days [60 days is becoming more common, as more folks forget to cancel]So long as terms to cancel are clearly stated prior to contracting, I don’t find it unethical, -- and real estate gurus have merely adapted a teaser or rebate marketing technique used in most every industry -- recently even Chrysler cars [try our minivan for 60 days!

It's much easier to unwind a fee for service relationship than it is a partnership.  

Rentals boil down to how much do you net after paying principle, interest, taxes, insurance, and a maintenance reserve.
