Returning, recommendations, Street presence, etc. to where it feeds itself. 

I'd recommend looking at costs. your build cost is going to be well over other homes because of the fixed costs like slab, Hvac, roof, etc. check the market drivers and weight the benefits of short term versus long term. long term is no furniture and help pays mortgage but at this size it doesn't really cover everything. we didn't find a lot of economies of scale in single family detached. can you build more than one unit?

We simply include the tax on the invoice sent to guests, which makes it easier to track and ensures we're covered for tax purposes at the end of the year.For Chicago, I’d recommend checking directly with the city’s tax office or a CPA, but generally, you’ll need to register with the city, collect the hotel tax from guests, and remit it on a regular schedule (likely monthly or quarterly).

Thank you for advising the areas you recommend. 

@Meghan Carson are there any you would recommend?

What would you recommend for someone just starting out?

If you went to a surgeon, do you think they would recommend a surgery? 

For house-flippers, which social media channels would you recommend?

I see a lot of amenities you recommended as amenities that increase the quality of stay which leads to a higher guest satisfaction but doesn't really affect my return.

Are there alternative strategies you’d recommend for this market or nearby markets which are of commuting distance to Danbury?
