Metro Codes is also increasingly monitoring STR listing sites and shutting down non-permitted STRs.I would encourage anyone who is involved in STR in Nashville to join the fight.

Pay a contractor to do the entire rehab and just monitor/manage.My last concern with this is if I take my $20k, add that with say $10k of private funding and another $5k of crowd or institutional funding, I will have $35k for the entire project.

I'm going to install security cameras around my property and will position one camera in front of the trash bin, so I can monitor if non-tenants are dumping in my bin. 

Pretty easy to monitor what other people on your same network are doing... 2) A person in the Wi-Fi can scan all devices connected to that Wi-Fi... this has now become common since there were a few prominent cases of creepy hosts with hidden cameras to spy on their guests (use a 3rd wi-fi if you want to hide other legitimate equipment for this reason to avoid misunderstanding — e.g. a doorbell camera pointed OUT of the property).  3) You can control the bandwidth of each network and keep it balanced 50/50... so if one guest is running 5 Netflix shows doesn’t impact the speed of the other

It has no batteries or moving parts.I have a camera system that monitors the front exterior and boat dock for security purposes.I had a parent that rented the house for her high school daughters Prom party.

"Tired Landlord"The other properties he owns aren't that way.I'm going to send him the questions we've gone over in this post so thank you everyone for helping with that.Definitely 'Monitor' this topic and check back with it frequently because I'm planning on seeing this deal through!

Do you charge for monitoring and maintaining vacant units?

I have rules of no outside dogs, only out while owner at home to monitor there  noise level and there safety. 

On top of that, they can sleep at night without having to worry about whether their property is managed.Some of my owners have enough time on their hands that they could possibly manage better on their own because they can drive by the property every single day, inspect every 1-2 months, monitor every penny, spend six hours on the phone procuring the best bid for a maintenance issue, swinging their own hammer, etc.
