Thanks for any additional input you have time to put forth. 

I don't have the 10% for the down but thinking of using a HELOC to get the money and then add it into the calculator.

I know hosts have included additional cleaning fees for violations as a deterrent.If none of these solutions work, you could look into completely independent HVAC systems for the two units, though that would be a bigger upfront investment.

For payments, tools like Stripe, PayPal, or booking software like OwnerRez work well.Happy to connect if you’d like to chat more or need additional tips!

We're fortunate to have an above-average income and live well below our means.This summer, we’ll be moving to Detroit (PCSing in August), and we’ve saved about $120,000 to invest in addition to having funds set aside for the home we’ll purchase in Detroit.The reason I’m posting is that I’m struggling to decide how to best allocate the $120k.

Does anyone have better insight into the cities I named?

Additionally, if there are any contractors in the Fort Lauderdale area who can provide an estimate or guidance on this type of conversion, I’d really appreciate the connection!

I wonder if you have any experience and insights about Sanford - Deltona - Deland? 

My biggest concern is managing additional units and tenants.

Your insights would be greatly appreciated.Thank you!
