Should I leave as is and cover it with a mesh cover for $2800 (really considering this), put a new liner in for 8k (not including new mechanics), or just fill it (don't know the cost on filling at this time)?

Hey @Theiborh Almanzar - now is a good time to actually speak with a lender about this and make sure you include your other 2 siblings into the conversation as well. 

It’s important to ensure that the borrowed funds are directly used for the acquisition or improvement of the rental property to qualify.Other Considerations:Equity Use: Ensure that the use of equity from Property A for Property B aligns with your long-term investment strategy and does not over-leverage your investments.Loan Terms: Consider the terms of any loan or line of credit carefully, including interest rates, repayment terms, and any potential impact on your cash flow.Conclusion:Leveraging equity from one investment property to purchase another can be a powerful way to expand your real estate portfolio.

We are going to convert our current primary into a rental, and it will likely cash-flow well enough (including capex, maintenance, vacancy etc.) to also cover the loan repayment on a $60K home equity loan amortized over 25 years.  

The strategies we cover include buy and hold, house hacking, fix and flip, REITs, short-term rentals, and real estate crowdfunding.

Some benefits are you don't have to worry about the tenants not including their location if they email you from a different address and changing PMs won't require changing your contact info.  

My guess is they're not including property taxes (not to mention capex, property management etc.)

Your city likely has laws about maintaining property, including the cost of damages to neighboring properties.

That includes professional carpet cleaner, minor touch-up/paint.

I recommend you include some of your key qualification criteria in the advertisement.
