After today’s experience with the extra “PM” fee tacked onto the already extremely high placement fee, I felt I had to say something.

Hi Niece, I'd suggest you get involved with other like minded folks at your local real estate group.

A quick look at groups near Camp Pendleton shows plenty of activity from folks seeking housing.

Lowering the prices are a good way to get a few folks but don't go crazy so you don't get the dregs who can destroy your place.Now, listing on Furnished Finder.

Now, with the ADU rules, developers are buying anything close with some extra space so there may only be scraps left that wouldn't pass FHA or would price you out.

Most folks I speak with seem to want this exact ideal in a vacation - it seems many of us are trying to escape the hustle and bustle, reconnect with nature, and decompress from every day life.

Also, if anything were to go wrong I wouldnt have the capital available to pay extra on a property every month. 

The only reason I buy them is because I think that if I get one extra detail that was missed in another, it is worth the course price.The land riches blueprint covers building up capital, passive income, subdividing, entitlement & more which is why I value it more than others. 

If the higher end rent prices on comparable units take an extra month to fill the vacancy and also the tenant stays 1-2 years instead of 3-4 years on average those landlord make LESS income charging that rental price ESPECIALLY if they pay a PM a placement fee upon turnover on top.

Alternatively, your GC can keep you posted on progress, but having a local project manager or even a trusted friend to occasionally drop by can provide extra peace of mind.Hope this helps, and good luck with your rehab project!
