I saw it on a list of top 25 STR markets: https://www.fastcompany.com/91031733/housing-market-best-air... 

If I know absolutely nothing about cars and I take my car into a mechanic for an air filter change, if they tell me it will take 10 days to fix and bill me $1,000 for labor...that is fraud?

If you do a new wall use pressure treated 6x6 ties.

Faith in their ability to create an air tight title policy has him geniunely concerned and so we move on. 

My career is inherently a career of repeat conversations as I do the same transactions and processes over and over but this one always comes back and I felt like it was a worthwhile post to help clear the air for both lenders and clients alike :) 

I’m active duty Air Force (for less than six months) before retiring after 30 years.

Lots of pressure washing, trimming trees off the roof, lower branches to help with mowing.

Not having enough reserves is hurting a lot of operators right now.You can always implement Ratio Billing for the utilities and bill back.Be careful with unit sizes, and if there is central air or PTAC systems when getting market rental comps.Looks like you've got an opportunityGino

Ex (random numbers pulled out of thin air)$100k purchase $160k ARV$30k reno but $20k at cost$15k holding costsTotal Cost:$145k cost or $135k with contractorWith the contractor at cost, I have an extra $10k of margin where I don't lose money, but obviously not ideal for the contractor since they would make less.I think a good way to price it would be the equity would equal your profit if you did a fee construction at slightly below the projected ARV, and slightly below the projected hold time.

This will pressure up the rents.We saw a similar trend in sales as well.
