Even if no written agreement it seems everyone has agreed to it since it has been allowed and improved.

@Tahiv Grantham In a lot of towns they will cross reference with the building inspectors as to whether or not you made any improvements.

A bad review or getting flagged by Airbnb are two scenarios where implementing the back up profile would mitigate the damage.   

Don’t be offended or over improve your property to make it nice .

Typically, siding doesnt improve rent. 

@Yuni Park  You should update your profile with your location, which would help. 

To suggest or infer that if OOSI didn't come in and buy these properties that they would somehow majestically be better taken care of and the quality of the blighted neighborhoods would improve is just silly.  

It's really tough to buy cash flow right now, you'll most likely have to create it by improving the property and increasing rents. 

I would suggest you set up your key words in your profile regarding Canadian investors or Canada or something to that nature.

I am definitely doing some of my numbers to see where we stand financially and see where we could improve. ( credit card debt, school loans, etc. ) how long after u decided to REI did u you purchase your first home?
