Refine tactics in terms of neighborhood characteristics, property type and management style).because I have strong convictions in both the thesis and strategy I am better able to deal with hiccups and stressors and less likely to make fear based mistakes.

With longer leases it might be worth it. all comes down to your investment style. eats into the cashflow but you are more protected.also, my situation is different due to mortgage cost. your one properties rent is 2.5 of my properties. my average mortgage is around 650.  

I would also opt for a galley style kitchen with an open island / peninsula similar to your 1 Bed scheme.  

My girlfriend's style or my style?

Hey @Mohammad Al-hadad,The first thing I would say is that the cool thing about real estate investing is that there are many options and styles about how to invest and what strategies you want to pursue.

You must be VERY careful when building cabin-style homes to STR, as they may be difficult to refinance.

The designer should have a good sense of what to do with your place since they are an expert in this field so I don’t think it’s worthwhile to hunt around for styles you like. space planning and layout will be an important first step.

With an exception of "substantial personal services", meaning hotel-style service, income from AirBnB is not subject to SE tax.

I just dont understand some of you allś management style. 

For vs style equity deals is one thing but for real estate it’s another.
