Im not a writer, so i have my fingers crossed that it makes sense.

All of my assumptions were based on that 2 unit residential and are fairly accurate between rental rate and ARV. 

I'm just choosing my stack right now and I actually thought Hospitable, Guesty and Logify were all similar services and I would only need one of them.

In my limited experience, they seem to lower it by $10K at a time.

My wife and I have been investing in real estate using creative strategies that don’t rely on traditional bank financing, and it’s completely changed how we look at deals.

My daughter will be school age a year or so after we move in.

If you are trying to maximize space you may want to consider convertible sofas and/or one that has a pull out option.As far as material my preference would be a darker neutral color microfiber that would be easier to clean.Possibly most important is looking for one that is commercial grade for durability.

What I did was after my sale was under contract and I was down to a couple weeks from closing I started shopping seriously and had my replacement under contract a couple days before my sale closed.

My allocation I mentioned above is purely what I would do based on my current financial situation.  

The Airbnb paid for almost all the expenses of owning the home and my "rent" was just putting $200-300 away each month in savings for maintenance and capex.
