I'm very cautious before exposing anyone to a potential hazard (I'd rather not do a deal than do a bad one, and our reputation is for well-vetted deals).

The rental portion of the BURRRR strategy is what I'd be cautious with within Seattle city limits.

Thanks @Gary McGowan in my research I have found both definitions and some indication that it was unclear in court which was true, so I wanted to err on the cautious side.

If they aren't even putting up high res, high quality pictures on their listings I would step cautiously.  

That's true Shaun, the market makes all the difference so when you have a large spread, you can go with the higher of the comps, if your spread is thin, I too would be very cautious of the lower comp.

Maybe we are just being too cautious about not knowing anything about who we are renting to or if they have been a good past guest.

Be cautious in Durango right now as list prices are high vs. rents, at least IMO.

The use is illegal, so some of my conservative/cautious landlord clients don't want any association with it.
