I am NOT going to buy custom blinds for this house so my two options are 1. install three standard sized blinds in the window to fill the window space OR 2. install a long heavy duty curtain rod and either put up some neutral (cheap) curtains or allow the renter to put up their own curtains. 

My market is very competitive right now, and I really want to get my foot into the game without rushing into something.

This would, however, eliminate customer retention risk, employee risk, and large amount of debt obligation.

Hi everyone my name is Lisa Marney.I am new to BiggerPockets but not the the real estate game.

Making good customer service, a good deal, and your success of the utmost importance to us.

I guess it just really depends on your end game.

I can customize it without reinventing the wheel.

@Robert Perry - Congrats on getting in the game!

.- Offer higher level of functionality like timers and sleep functions to allow you to customize your desired temperature settings.- The loudest parts of the unit are located outside making mini splits quieter and .- More secure than window air conditioners not only regarding intruders but also dust and pests.- Many units are designed to both heat and cool allowing for year-round comfort.I hope help you my comment, or to anyone.

You will need to come up with the down payment (lenders want you to have skin in the game).
