Purchase price: $405,000 Cash invested: $10,000 Sale price: $495,000 My wife and I joined the Air Force lifestyle in 2009, and rented for five years before we worked up the courage (and savings) to buy our first home (VA benefits helped!).

I set about making criteria for myself, such as brick houses (we didn't want to paint every few years), warm locations (didn't want to have pipes break during vacancies), at least 3 beds and 2 baths, near an Air Force base and so forth. 

The Ozone gas is a little heavier than air so it goes downward so I am not sure how effective it would be on a two story house.

This is done with air flowing through system for 15 minutes to 30 minutes to see if there is any leak.

I paid 4.5k to upgrade meter from 80 to 150 amp and upgrade service panel so I could get central air and heat.

Heading to a friend's place I tripped and fell and in mid air my knee popped and all I could do was scream and pray.

So yes Airbnb is doing better than hotels and Air transport, but far far from being in good shape. 

However, I've been warned that investing in vacation rentals can prove disastrous if the politics of the region are unfavorable.That is, in certain areas in California (Coronado I've heard for instance) the city has essentially banned rentals for under 30 days, effectively destroying the Air B N B and vacation rental market there.Does anyone know if there's any such push in the Avila/SLO area by local politicians or the community?

I see you're also a Naval Aviator, I'm an Air Force engineer/PM (at least for a little bit longer!)!
