Even with a few gnarly evictions of crazy inherited tenants under my belt the worst I’ve had was old furniture left, dog turds and cigarette butts on the carpet and human turds un-flushed in the toilet (no upper-deckers yet thankfully).

My downstairs neighbor didn't complain but if he did i would say that my furniture covers 70% of the floor.

Yes.The low supply in California is partially to blame.

Builders make more money making more upscale homes, so the supply of starters hasn't kept up with the demand. 

Does anyone know of an app that converts MLS listings from a portal (supplied through Real Estate Broker) to an Excel spreadsheet?

If it was empty then I assume it’s not full of furniture like a regular person is living there?

It also has Geo thermal heating that supplies radiant heating to all the floors in the home.  

If the market doesn’t support STRs anymore, switch to hosting traveling nurses or corporate housing guests for 1-3 months and stay until the end of the lease, then sell all the furniture and don’t renew the lease.

BUT in my experience in Detroit that can be dicey.. unless you have STRONG RECOMMENDATIONS from their past customers that you can trust.I've found my best strategies for rehabs is utilizing a hybrid approach to 'piece-mill' my rehab team.. find a good plumber, electrician, carpenter, handy man etc.If you hit a home run and have a company that's supplied all members awesome!!

Here's a quick one I'm hoping someone would be able to shed some light or experience on - I have heard from some people that it is a great idea to fit out an apartment with nice and modern furniture, maintain it well and rent it out for a couple of thousand Rand more than a similar empty unit.
