Also involved in a personal residence you would make different choices on how much to invest into things like fixtures, flooring, paint color/quality etc etc etc vs what you would choose for a rental which most often are less expensive materials and really not custom in any manner shape or form, so your "home" for a couple years might have all kinds of more expensive inputs and then end up as a rental unit later which may or may not be a good use of money after all.
