Might be worth seeing if you can add some weather stripping and foam stripping to the door frame to help reduce some noise and also make the unit for air tight.

This May my fiancée and I will both graduate college as well as commission into the Air Force as officers.

Hi everyone!I just submitted paperwork to the zoning examiner to get a non-owner occupied STR permit for my home in Nashville, TN.  I was just curious about how others have faired with their business during the pandem...

Sidewalks will not be being pushed up by over grown roots and air conditioners will still have plenty of life left in them to get several decades down the road.

There is no heat and air back there.

Examples: the lines run up an exterior wall, they run through an uninsulated area of the basememt/crawlspace, there is a crack or opening in the wall that is next to a line, etc.Make sure to keep the sink base cabinet doors open to allow warmer air to circulate there so hopefully the faucet won't freeze and cause even more damage.You should call another plumbing service provider to see if you can get work done sooner. 

Once the home is purchased I will have about $40k profit.I know that I could use the 1031 exchange to purchase a new property and prolong the taxes.

With cabinets, usually keeping them open to allow the warm room air in helps. 

I still love that idea, but at a local real estate investors get together, we had a guest speaker talk about vacation rentals-specifically through Air BnB.

If you add Covid, even with moratorium lifted, an experienced tenant can prolong this process quite a bit - up to 6 months or more.
