No, it won't scale, and it's no fun to deposit, but the firm, full, heavy feel of the envelope in my hand...oh yeah, it just does something for me...

I Airbnb 1 full floor, live in another unit and rent the third unit.I have 2 4-family properties in springfiled Ma. 

Ken - are you looking for full service?

Is this condo you are talking about 140 a night full stop?

Any plans to sell before the 5 year ownership mark is up in order to avoid taxes on your gains (assuming you were in it a full 2 years)?

Rent is considered to be late if not received in full prior to midnight on the 1st of each month.

I work full time as a naturopathic physician and for the first 5 years in private practice we rented our office space.

HML - 90% downpayment, 13.75% 6 month payback period, interest only Personal loan - 13.875% no money down, paying interest and principal.On a 30k rehab loan with 7 year term, I'd pay $555/mo ($355 in principal pay down and $200 in interest). 30k increase in my HML would result in $343 increase in monthly payment So the choice is: Pay down personal loan, lose more money out of pocket till refinance, smaller DP on HML VS lose less money, larger DP, and having to pay full amount later. 

Another thing I was reading about was about having a parent co-sign the lease since more than likely a full time student won't be able to make 3x monthly rent.

Once I had possession of the property I had one of the contractors that I work with go in and do a full rehab.
