Likely no real effect in your situation, but really just depends on the volumetrics of your system.

Not sure where you live but it is something you can do out of state as well with the right systems in place.

We've gone through a few pricing software systems and currently really like Beyond Pricing.I came across this platform called Turnoverbnb and that connected me with a few cleaners who I then contracted off of the site to work for me personally.

They have great automated systems.

STR do require some more time to manage operationally, but with a few proactive systems set up on the front end (bnb friendly cleaner, automated messaging, multiple sets of turnover supplies so you are not stuck doing laundry during the busy workweek)  will make life much more easier!

Accomplished the goal of saving me money, as well as, entering the world of LTR in a way where systems can be established and learning happen in a small controlled way before embarking on bigger investments and using OPM.

I've failed before, I'm not afraid to fail again.I had to put complete faith in a group of strangers I had never personally met before and systems I knew weren't completely reliable.

This would be done by allowing automated systems, powered by algorithms, to harvest the data and turn it into credit reports.From the report:“The use of non-financial data will have large effects on the provision of financial services.

Well said about the spouse/family support system.

@Ryan Maguire water in basements in the Midwest is almost a given unless you take steps to control it...what you are describing is a freak event...the sewer system was overwhelmed...getting 5in rain in this part of the country usually only happens from hurricanes from the Gulf...Sounds like you got it sorted...could have been worse
