(I have no stake in this other than I just read this section in the book, and this is not some kind of marketing ploy by me.)

Booking.com is definitely gaining some market share as of late.

Have you decided on a target market that you plan on investing in yet?

I don't know anything about the Richmond market. 

They are zoning and land use regulations, accessibility, environmental factors, market analysis, topography and terrain, utilities and services, neighbourhood characteristics, restrictions and opportunities, development feasibility, financial analysis etcetera.

@Michael KaminskiIf your existing home is on the market the bank could do a traditional bridge loan which is short term and gives you time to sell your home - just want to make sure you have plenty of equity that when it sells it can pay off that loanWhat state you in ?

Research local market rates to determine how much more you can charge; often, Airbnb properties can command 20-50% higher than traditional leases, but this varies by location and demand.

We might sell if the rental market doesn't pan out—so curb appeal is important.  

Any advice on whats the best way to reach out and any risks or tips to consider before investing in a property that needs a lot of work.
