Hi All,I considered starting a REIT to allow others to invest and build wealth in projects that I would start, but that was a much, much higher level than I actually have interest in pursuing.  Reading through some ot...

I have personally replaced the pilot assembly in a gas-fired water heater.

I lived near the University of Oregon before moving here a few years ago and noticed that most landlords were making much more money renting by the room for U of O students.

I have a Series LLC I use to collect income for my consulting business, but the income goes to my personal checking account.

It gives you perhaps a more thorough view of the type of person they are. 

If you are looking to make some money and have a place to use 4-5 times a year, then from that aspect it's a great investment but solely looking at numbers I could find others that perform much better.

If a room has their own bathroom, obviously that would not be part of the cleaner's responsibility as they would not be entering any of the private spaces.Renting by the room will get you more money, but will also require more work on your part as there will be personality clashes (do not get involved in those).
