This seems almost too good to be true, even at $250,000 so it's tempting, instant cash flow, like you would need to be crazy stupid to pass it up.

Best advice that was passed on to me was to make sure you spend a lot of time getting this number right.

Wisconsin just passed updated laws on service pets and rentals...there are some great sites you can use via googling that outline exactly what the updates are.

I know lots of hosts don't like one night minimums because of the turnover rate, but it works great for passing travelers.

I passed the 1st try so I think they did a great job.

I would not entertain it- far better things to get a return on investment.1- You should not entertain shelling out cash to reduce a tenant's electric bill, no pay-off there.2.

I liked it and passed my state exam in one shot with flying colors!

With a first walk through I'm more concerned with risks than benefits of adding rooms/baths, etc, because I'm looking for buy and holds not short term flips.Biggies (for me, other people will have different lists): foundation issues, roof issues (look at the roof itself and any signs of water damage on ceilings and walls), mold (beyond a little where things need fixing), leaks in showers that are hard to get at, squishy subfloors around toilets and tubs, termites, knob-and-tube wiring, ungrounded, two-prong outlets, no central HVAC (this is all about your location, some places this is fine), and to a lesser extent water heaters.Heavy duty foundation or mold issues I would pass up, the rest I would consider in my offer price. 

I feel that is a violation of my renters so I only put in Name and Phone number then use a generate random email to pass the system. 

@Joel N.I feel it is great thing if you do not want to get involved with the entire real sales process, find an agent that is great pass him/her your possible retail and/or commercial leads and get a referral check.
