Your first house flip, not so much.After grinding for a few weeks I think this is the thing: at the beginning, all you get are sucker prices.

Listing agent might (correctly) come back with "F that noise, I'll just kick in from my commission..."

My understanding is that you still need a lease with a tenant, and the roommate agreement can spell out in more detail the day to day behavior and living conditions within the house - diving of chores, noise, etc.

This would mean that most airbnb rentals would be in neighborhoods that don't have HOAs, which would then cause many of those homeowners to be against airbnb adoption so they don't have to deal with the hassles, loud noise and parties that often occur.I do think there are methods to avoid the neighbors getting upset, but they are exceptions.

Where I live, there is a popular island that city people like to use to get away from the noise for a weekend.

(a) cost to heat the apartment and (b) noise from other tenants in the building.

Just last month I had a buyer and seller disagreeing on a subsidy for repairs...buyer was at 1800 and seller was at 1100...so $700 apart on like a $700k deal, so I ate half that and the buyers agent ate half to get the deal done.So many people hate real estate agents and the industry, and think they are useless...but let me tell you home sales would come to a grinding halt without them because buyers and sellers could never sit down and agree on a price. 90% of consumers take the transaction so personally, there is no way anything would ever sell.

After recently getting back to work on the real estate grind, I'm torn now whether to pursue fix and flips or pick back up on note investing. :)

It seems to me that the background noise makes conversation difficult more than a few feet away.

Sorry I have to post this because it just happened: Your wife says you need a new truck because yours makes lots of noise and is 22 years old, you look at $20K trucks calculate the payments on your amortization app and decide you cannot afford it. ...Then you see a million dollar portfolio for sale on BP and start frantically running numbers on your app thinking there has to be some way I can afford this.
