If she maintains the unit and is respectful of the premises I would go out of my way to accommodate her.

I imagine it would be a nightmare maintaining 100 different LLC’s and 100 different bank accounts when we reach 100 rental properties.

The impact of rent control on apartment owner net income  which would presumably necessitate an increase in property taxes on SFHs to maintain property tax revenue collections (assuming the city doesn't leave taxes on SFHs the same and instead increase them on a group that doesn't contribute to reelection campaigns).

If the Board is not fulfilling their duty as a fiduciary to all of the owners by not properly maintaining, protecting, and preserving the common and limited common elements, you will have unexpected maintenance fee increases or special assessments to "catch up" with long deferred maintenance.

At a high level, I'm most attracted to the buy and hold rentals, mainly because I see them as "easier" to accomplish while maintaining the W2.

Hi, fellow STR investorsAs there are many small projects on maintaining short-term properties, I wonder how you all pay your handymen on these projects, such as assembling furnitures, fixing a drawer, etc..I am trying to estimate the number of hours required to finish the task and pay them by hours ($30/h in Georgia).

It's 5x the cost of a standard thermostat, it's more complex to set up and maintain, it's harder to transition to the next renter, and it's more likely to break.Sometimes dumber is better.
