My property manager was also considering engineered or real wood as well, but it seems the durability isn't very good in those types of flooring.

They are hard engineered wood floors.

I have been involved in property rental for about 30 years and have been a software engineer for nearly 20 years. 

The more Likes you receive, the higher you'll appear on search engine results and the more likely you'll be able to convince sponsors to give you money to mention their name and services.My takeaway from these observations is it helps if you have a flair for self-promotion, which is something I lack.

Our background:wife is in medical field and I’m an engineer.

I am also an engineer and I have worked on and overhauled in the individual components more than a few times myself.

I hope to make the acquaintance of many of you and look forward to chatting with you all.I am a 40yr old I.T. guy who decided to go back to school to pursue a degree and certifications that will allow me to move into a Network Engineer role.

Strategically, I moved into my car and made my way to Denver, CO earlier in 2018 where the weather was bearable to live in my 4-door sedan while I networked and got my first job as a software engineer.After getting my foot in the door and some experience as a junior software engineer, I began searching for a job in a lower cost of living area than Denver and away from the traffic.Strategically, I was looking for jobs in midwestern cities with colleges and stable economies because my next goal is to own a home and rent out rooms in the home.As luck would have it, I'm starting a new position in Lincoln, NE in January 2019 where I lived for 10 years before (I went to college there).Now I'm seeking advice for my first rental property purchase.My plan is to purchase a house around $90,000-$120,000 in June/July of 2019.

I have always enjoyed renovation and it is inline with my engineering and building background and my goal is to create passive income so I can work less hours.

I think if you're trying to create an entire booking engine site, you're going to spend a fair amount of time, & money creating and managing a site; more than what Airbnb is charging in commissions.
