I know several of the MFH in that part of Roseville have those 1950s oil burning furnaces, they are at their service life, so it dies it dies.Also, you will need to put in Central Air I would guess.I get $850 and $725 for my units.

A number of people have been burned thinking they had a "home stay" when the city had a different definition (the city does not want potential long-term rentals diverted to STR's, so they are interpreting "home stay" very narrowly).CREIA (Carolina Real Estate Investors Association) had a specialized sub group that met monthly just to discuss the short term rental business in the Asheville area.

We've been burning the candle at both ends to get the unit we just moved out of ready to lease, and if I lose these awesome tenants because of a rental increase at this particular moment in time, it will be the last straw that sends me over the edge.
