It's definitely one career choice that has paid dividends in my REI lifespan.

What is very popular, ...each month, upon receiving a payment, I promptly send an "email receipt", with an updated payment schedule (my tenant-buyers "depend on these monthly email receipts" --- "they love it"!)

It was a great place in a popular neighborhood and then I had to move back to California so I just kept it there and I am currently renting out here. 

People, real estate investing isn’t a darned popularity contest or social media attention grabber.

I work in corporate America and have co-workers in their early 30's that are paycheck to paycheck because of their lifestyle choices. 

I have a few short term rentals, and they are incredibly popular.

People will be forced to make choices...Some jobs might never get back, because companies have found new ways of doing things ...20% unemployment rates has been mentioned already by the people in charge. 

One reason is because you have no choice really.

I agree with Account Closed that STR wasn’t as popular back in 2008 as it is now.  

It's hard to evaluate the flip without knowing your numbers but from a glance, I can say your design choices while thoroughly addressing each room should get you multiple offers this week.
