Btw, if I have another property completed in the area with similar finishes, I will ask their agent to walk them through THAT property first, so they will have an idea of what their house would look like when completed.2.

We have since added and updated vent hoods, but if the tenant doesn't use them, we could eventually have similar problems.

Hi, I wonder how holding an airbnb/short-term corporate housing property will impact my ability to secure conventional loans for future investment properties.I am about to list my apartment on airbnb, which basically provides short-term housing similar to a hotel.

But, I have noticed that in two towns that have comparable populations, amenities, etc, that similar houses in each town have a big difference in taxes.

Not sure how long you would have to live in this property after purchase - I'm assuming it would be similar to the requirements on an FHA loan.

Any have a similar experience?

I've got a similar plan.

I imagine there are similar laws in place across the country.

Many of these comps were for homes dated around 1980, which is similar to the one I'm looking at.

@Lynn HubbardI have a similar situation like yours except the tenant's lease will be expired onFeb 28,2014.
