Due to the unique offering of the lake access in proximity to Rudolph Music Center, Grand park and the fact it has access to Morris reservoir I’m interested to get peoples opinion on What do you think would be the better play.   

@Max Langlois - smart play.

The amenities, pictures, descriptions, reviews, all play a part in how much you can charge.

Also seller financing is likley a good play here. 

I also want to connect with people in my area as well as others, to learn and possibly partner with In the future.Fun fact I play in paintball tournaments (speed ball) almost every weekend.

Agents play a big part, and you need someone willing to fight for you and you deal.

Getting to 4.81 on that one out of four units is just statistics playing on you I think.  

Like smoking, it is very difficult to go back from a pet property to a non pet property without significant time and cost.Applicants who avoid the extra compensation or play games to qualify, legally or not, are not desirable tenants. 

With rent increases being so large YoY there I might just have to wait a year or 2 for substantial cash flow.Airbnb/short term sounds like a common play.

You are better off hiring the contractor, paying the fee and keeping 100% of the profits on your flips.On the other hand, if the contractor brings to the table not only the funds for the rehab but also for the purchase as well as handles all management of the rehab and the design, then perhaps an equity split is appropriate financially for you.Your next post states the contractor is your brother so with that said, things change as family is family, but the financially principle I stated above is still in play.
