Next year this time we plan on having at lease 1 more rental property and 1 flip property.

Both were difficult and could have been avoided if we had had better planning.

Im looking to move our 5 (soon to be 17) short term rentals over from being solely listed on airbnb, to a comprehensive PMS system to save on airbnb fees and build some efficiencies into our workflow.

I know that in single families in Cleveland Heights people have put in basement bedrooms with an egress window and they were on formal plans that were submitted to the city and approved. 

Reach out to your local land use planning and/or zoning department.

Pick an investment plan that fits what you like and what you have, like rent and hold, fix and flip, selling contracts, or living in one part while renting the rest.

Yet when we own multiple rental properties, I suspect that even the best planning can't keep overwhelm from happening sometimes.

I plan on house hacking and was wondering if I should open a new bank account solely for the rental property transactions.

Hurricane prep and Evac plan for all properties.

I’d maybe start with, I agree with $x amount even though you missed the deadline but expect the rest returned to me within x days, or I plan to contact tenants rights group to help me seek all damages allowed.
