If you just called someone up and asked how you could help them, you would be ten steps ahead of Bobby, who is stammering through the first line of a script from 1974 about a cash offer when the homeowner bought the house for 51k in 1978 and it's worth 804k (aka does not need cash, he needs a place to go).Agree 💯!

The one you can scale.I know successful business owners in the fitness industry, tanning salons, real estate, window coverings, maintenance, billboard, ATMs, etc.Generally, I would be skeptical of jumping into a business based on YouTube videos hosted by and featuring people that are likely primarily trying to sell you their respective courses.Small businesses can indeed be great investments, but they are hard.  

They have no skin in the game, they'll just move on to the next owner.

Appreciate any insight  Depends on where you are because every state and locality is different.

Depend on what you personally want to do.

Quote from @Davin Manfredi: This is a construction material on the remodel or work done on the home, so I would say it would fall on you.

Congratulations #1...on so many things. 

Does my lender need to provide escrow instructions or anything along those lines?

It really depends on location, quality of home features, amount of privacy for renters/members, and competition.

It's turned into a money pit, but at the same time it's on a beautiful .90 acres with a view of the mountains and a pool that I had remodeled.
