For a short term rental you’ll probably need 20% down payment (assuming you buy as an investment property), and then you’ll need around 15k for furniture + additional money for remodel.

I guess the ideal way to look at it is: If you like the company and believe in the operator, then basically assume you are signing a document that allows you entry but which virtually negates any ability you would have to complain or sue if things went south. 

Most of our rentals are mobile homes on private property, purchased specifically because they cost ½ or less what stick-built houses of comparable square footage would have – and they bring virtually the same rent.

We also have the most meetings, pre-covid we are running around 7 a month, right now it is just the main meeting that is going virtual.

., Open Houses are prohibited, showings of tenant-occupied are prohibited, more virtual and on-line showings, and because my office is 'in the cloud' there is no need to go to an office for meetings, etc. 

I referred her to the lease para which strictly forbids any furniture being stored in garage.

My parents would find furniture and electronics that others had thrown away during “pickup” and sanitize them and tinker with them until they were functional and like new.

There's a Thursday noon (local time) virtual meeting by Harold McGee & Jean Norton.

Virtually no updating needed (5k total with painting) and the appeal process for 2 units. 450 dollar app fee & 30 minutes in front of zoning & we got the green light.

or we can do a virtual meet up for first round.
