Keep a journal of when they notified you, when they started demolition, what hours of each day they are working, temperature in the unit, notes on conversations, copies of all emails, letters, phone conversations, etc.

Hi Sam,Do you think you have a steady stream of potential renters who will pay a premium for the pool vs without.To me, above ground pools are:[1] mainly for kids and teens,[2] says successful blue collar family (most of the time).Look up how much that pool heater will cost to run (I'm betting it's will be more than you think).Look up how much water is lost by evaporation and has to be replaced in your area.Pools require "Pool Chores" to keep them clean and running right.

@Marco Egurvide Hey Marco, in tampa by using smart locks for the doors, having specific automated check in/out instructions, a steady cleaning crew/maintenance guy and having the cleaning crew bring in the products you regularly have shipped to the house (paper towel, shampoo, etc) you can automate an STR quite efficiently.

At that point the price appreciation will be driven still by the seller's through a steady increase of their list prices - but that is way less powerfull as these 15 offer competitions that drive prices 10-15% over asking.

@Ricardo Hidalgo We'd like to invest in a city that is growing and has good steady jobs for people so that sounds like a good place to look into. 

After putting all the info here, how do I calculate the selling price (for a full occupied, steady building)Thank you guys.

I wanted to go all in on investing, but knew I needed steady income-as I have a wife and kids-so I got a job at a property management company.

Slow and steady still wins the race and you are on the right track.
