Not only is every order on one website but you get emails on which orders arrive what day and an email when they arrive.

They do, but when the roofing contractor arrived and onsite and queried the notice with BTC, they was told it is old and the issue is resolved. well then thats the roofers fault for falling for that.. 

There SOW would usually be - 'I want a remodel done on the kitchen and bath, and add a new bedroom on the left side of the house'...Then I would add items that only a GC would know about or notice, like needing new headers for the openings they want, the elec panel being undersized, or the roof being suspect, etc...Together we would then arrive at a comprehensive SOW.Yes, that is much better scenario.

After arrival they're disappointed to find it's not a private bedroom, which leads to disgruntled guests that search for way to get a refund and leave bad reviews.

If that's not the monthly income, you are arriving at your cap rate by using incorrect expense ratios/expense figures and/or the property benefits from an extremely favorable tax abatement which skews the operating costs.

I'm feeling the delays I've imposed on myself in my RE investing, so I'm trying to correct my trajectory to get back on course ASAP.You may not realize it, but you just stated your goals.Number of properties, no matter how you arrive at a number, is never a goal. 

That said, my last Booking.com guest a couple of weeks ago was a bit difficult pre-arrival but ended up being a great guest and left a 10 star review (no comments though).  

The kids sure don't.Also, how did you arrive at your rent numbers?

Add to that fact that the holiday is arriving so that they may have guests coming over. 

The calvary arrives just in time to mop up.I have a second home in Maui, and as I look out in one direction the entire town I used to see burned to the ground in 2023.
