@Jordan Calaway, thanks for sharing the lessons learned!

It’s an added yearly expense but the interest arbitrage is there.As for air bnb you’re correct that’s a no per the HOA.Peter

@Jordan Moorhead@Jacob Pereira@Ganessan P.Thanks guys for the suggestions!

My HVAC is simply an air handler that blows hot and cold depending on what season we’re in.I’ve been quoted $2800 to repair the unit.

This is my first post.I'm from the Central Valley of California, near Fresno closer to the Lemoore Naval Air Station.

You can get top dollar with Air BNB and you dont have many of the other risks involved.

Will this add potential additional legal costs to Air Bnb's bottom line?

Remodel will start at the extra front entry and I will set it up for air bnb to make my payment that is first thing.

In my short term rental there is no AC. It's not needed that much on top of a mountain but every now in then it can get musty. I have a portable in the main area but nothing but ceiling fans in the bedrooms. Has anyon...

The issue is that as you know the windows in the house are the original windows (which means 40+ year old windows) and they aren't insulated, causing air from the outside to flow freely inside.
