You could use the city water to fill the tank when it is available then it can be relied on during the water supply down time.It could be a wash on the costs depending.

You provide a few common areas/community features (Laundry area/meeting room/garden/aquaculture/greenhouse), and they pay an HOA fee for that and other stuff.

Very cool, Benjamin.Now, does managing an STRf for 20-25% also mean cleaning, laundry, re-stock, full turnover?  

@Tim West Yes - exactly my vision would be a different feel - community gardens, laundry facility, perhaps a guest suite that they could rent for overnight guests.

My team tore out all the kitchen cabinets, removed the stand up shower, toilet, and vanity, added a laundry closet, knocked out a wall to add a full shower, built a large deck, installed all new flooring, replaced all but one light, had the electric updated and a couple outlets added, repaired two broken windows, replaced some of the plumbing, painted the exterior of the house and all interior rooms, put in all new kitchen cabinets with quartz counter top, all new appliances to include washer dryer and dishwasher, installed a new tub, vanity, toilet, built a stone base to the fireplace, and did some landscaping.

I recall a client early in my career who worked their neighborhood for cutting grass/washing trash cans who saved up $15k in a year from that alone.

I'd imagine the appreciation on my current house over the next few years (if I rent) will wash a lot of that interest away?

Now it's onto making it beautiful with new everything inside, laundry room, and curb appeal.

Items like kitchens, bathrooms, convenient laundry, nice flooring are most likely to catch the eyes of renters and can justify market or slightly higher than market rent.

A really good one is to wash your hair really well, then put a piece of hair on one of those things.
