That being said, do you guys/gals happen to know of any websites/apps I could utilize to make this happen?

Do I need to tell them to stop all utility accounts like electricity, water, garbage...etc.

It’s just surprising that between taxes, insurance, lawn care, utilities, etc, it’s only $12k.

I’m trying to figure out a way to invest in a property or rental so that we can utilize it instead of paying another mortgage in the cost of hotels and airbnbs.

Holding an apartment for 2 months means 2 months of mortgage payment, utilities, maintenance, etc.

Based on what I learned from the internet, it seems that the best way is to count the number of rooms in the house and take a percentage of the total household expenses, i.e. we have 4 bedrooms, 1 living room, 1 dining room, 1 kitchen, 1 office, so the office expense should be 1/8 of the total expenses, including property tax, utility, home insurance, etc.  5.

Most store bought systems out now utilize WiFi but the property doesn't have WiFi set up yet.

My current living expenses for renting a room in a house including utilities is about $1000.
