I had to reject many requests and airbnb has a new rule that pre-emptively prevents under 25 year olds from renting homes on weekends.   

I have recently built and sold a successful plumbing company here locally and am looking to get back to my roots in the residential housing market. 

I put it in a email so that have documentation.It would be unfair for them to pay in advance and then a Covid issue prevents them from coming.I try and be fair with anyone renting from me.

So I chose to move forward with a less than ideal HVAC decision in order to prevent what could have been a multi-month delay to the project, not to mention may or may not have actually saved me money in the end.

(Just bathroom area)Unknowns/concerns:• Sealing to prevent future leakage• Preventing future mold problems• Possible future electrical issues• Ensuring that it is okay to take out the current wall• PermittingAny and all advice would be greatly appreciated!

I just ask that next time if there is something preventing it, give me a chance to address it."

Even on the lipstick flips, it is not hard for an unforeseen error, say a tree root in a sewer line, to eat most of my $30k profit.  

I would certainly recommend a seperate bank account for any charges and income for teh rental making it easier to track, especially come tax time, thus preventing comingling of funds. 

If you buy it for 600k, and it’s worth 700k prior to you spending a dime, then you have 100k is inherited equity.Now, if repairs are needed, those that are necessary for safety come first (heat and AC would fall here), those that will prevent damage come next (roofs), those that deliver what any tenant would expect come next (appliances).  

Are these contracts just trying to prevent us from using other realtors?
