Heard it is a safer way Why get a luxury car?

Obviously, your rental income is lower than with vacation rentals but I assume that the prices you pay for a property is much lower given that 1) you are not on the beach and 2) you don't need to offer property of a quality/luxury level that can compete with hotels.

@Joe Alford lots of virtue signalers on her but I’m pretty compassionate myself so I’d give her some free prune Juice and a QVC gift certificate when I evict her.

Maisel” on Amazon Prime, you probably ogle over her luxurious 10-room apartment.

You'd get to $10K, then realize you want a fancier car / nicer house / luxury trips.  

I could move into a property that looks like a good deal (either in SF or the Easy Bay) and secure an FHA for 3.5% down by virtue of living in the property as my primary, rent out additional rooms, and essentially function as the property manager.

San Antonio TX-Luxury Airbnb, listed for 1.2M. original offer of $925k rejected. settled at $950k.

@Josh Bryan Patience is a virtue...Hope the property works out!

Either build luxury single families or larger apartments.

I will be going to a new city and will not have this luxury so wanted to see what others had to say to ease my uncertainty or to validate why I am uncertain.
