Due to item 1, adding an ADU can require years to start achieving any return (once the accumulated cash flow recovers the initial negative position).4) Adding an ADU is a slow process.

Larger expenses like roof seems like can be a direct pay by owner item.

For those additional items outside of closing costs, don't go crazy.

I'm about to close on a property tomorrow and the latest CD doesn't have the lender credits ($3,052) that were initially a line item in the LE.

Hardwood floors are definitely more aesthetically appealing, more durable and are much easier to clean.

You have more of an argument for the other items since it could be argued they are code required / require specialized knowledge to analyze.Get quotes for the things you want to be corrected immediately and get a credit to closing.

So cash...here's what was shared with me:  "Your supporting documents should identify the payee, the amount paid, proof of payment, the date incurred, and include a description of the item to show that the amount was for purchases."

If there are any deductions to your deposit, I will give you an itemized list of charges and the refund of any remaining deposit.

Each co-host charges a different rate.With an Airbnb or other vacation rental, you'll need to fully furnish it, from the bedrooms to the living rooms to the kitchen (fully-stocked, including not only utensils and plates but staple food items like cereal and cookware too). 

But generally items like appliances, carpet, paint, cabinets etc would examples of items that the landlord is able to depreciate over time on their taxes and therefore is expected to replace when needed.I hope this helps!
