I am now getting my first home and iwant to airbnb the bottom half of the home and fix it up nice to attract high quality travelers.

We don't have a designated place inside so its always and adventure to find where we are sitting :) 

Hi guys thanks for reading this is my first property house-hack 3 family and I don’t want to overthink this so I need guidance here. This unit has been scrubbed because prior tenant was a smoker and dog lover.  I’m gr...

And is the designation of contractor something you can get simply by registering with the city, or is there some sort of vetting process or other requirements?  

These are REALTORS who put in the extra effort to get this designation and should be more versed in land purchases than your average REALTOR.https://www.rliland.com/accred...

It is a “known fact” that insurance company’s offer low rates (even below cost) to attract customers and then raise the rates until they hit a customer’s pain point. 

I was 25 and my wife was 23 when we had our first baby.We fell for the “American Dream” and bought a single family home.Oops.Terrible mistake.Yes we have equity in the home but we could have equity AND cash flow.We should have bought a multi and then used our cash flow to buy ANOTHER multi.From there generate enough cash flow to pay for the LUXURY of a single family.Supplemental income is a very beautiful thing.Is it pretty and attractive in the beginning years of marriage and children to live in a multi?

That means advertising short lease terms will attract people who don't plan to live there long.

My guess is overall this is going to look less attractive adding in more of those expenses.
