The mold that was there was sort of faint - white fuzzy stuff from the house not being heated or air conditioned during it's time being for sale. 

Imagine not just a pool in the winter people want it heated.

Your rental has to have a new heating system - that’s $10k being drawn from that HELOC that has no direct increase in cash flow to cover the debt payment. 

Why I would suggest you do it: Hiring a tax professional short cuts many people in building wealth as they often learn strategies from these folks that turn up the heat on their investing strategies.

@Alan Asriants On 3 of my 7 properties I am switching rent increases for new heating systems that will have the tenants paying for their own heat.

Also, I don't know what the problem is with heating and cooling in most hotels but I find I can control temperature much more easily in Airbnbs.I suspect that nightly rates for many urban Airbnbs have risen as regulations have reduced competition.

I also have a no windows open clause while heat runs. 

We texted a few times and I found out he is coming here for an emergency repair job on the heat exchangers of the cat unit at a local refinery. 

Leveled house- exterior paint, fresh landscaping, added privacy fence, interior paint, new windows, new mini split heat pump system, painted kitchen cabinets, new counters and hardware, new bathroom vanities and toilets, expoxied baby blue bathtub and tile surround white.

Most likely radiant floor heating.
