First I plan on having enough properties for them to pay for all my children to go to college and then I plan on them funding most of my retirement. 

Maybe even stage some of the photos with furniture or flowers. 

We'd be willing to show the place as long as they don't mind that the main furniture would still be there.Those are good ideas; I'll call my LL and ask him. 

I love my children and want the best for them. 

If these are million dollar homes then I would say you would need to go to school and get the education as there is a lot that goes into interior design from the lighting to color to furniture layout and use of rooms.

@Kyle GodboutCredit it's currently in great shape I wish I could house hack but my wife and I purchased a SFH 2 yrs ago and we also have 4 children.

Another important thing to note is that with a mini-split, you have th is wall mounted units which can be very expensive, yet also pretty easy for a tenant to ruin as they are sensitive to impact if they hit it with furniture or whatever it may be.

Not every deal sitting on the MLS is going to be a home run, sometimes you have to wait and keep and eye out and be ready to pounce when a good one hits, and also make sure that you are keeping your own personal preferences on finishes and furniture etc out of the analysis. 

If your current furniture is nice and in good condition, you might leave a few pieces in the living room and/or a bedroom to "stage" it while you are showing it to prospective tenants, but don't leave any personal items. 

I have bought other distressed assets they owned.one case in particular I got to talking to the lady it was very sad.. house was wreck .. lots of disabled type children adults living there stunk to high heaven.. and I could just see trying to get them out.. flushed out how she got there..
