I was assured by the HVAC guy he thoroughly explained the dampers and how they work to the tenants so this shouldn't occur again. 

If you are setting aside funds for capex, taxes, insurance, or other expenses that don't occur monthly, transfer those funds to Savings each month and hold them there until it's time to spend them.

From my experience, none of this occurs immediately, and time will be provided to make the transfer back into your name.

I am looking out of state and thought this was an interesting metric to find where growth is occuring.

It's also best to double whatever timeframe "should" occur so you're not irritated when things don't proceed as they should. 

There's no need to have the footage available unless an incident occurred so as long as the camera kept the latest 3 days ongoing I'd say that would be enough. 

Gives you sufficient time to check out all the features and faults of the house.Time to check out the neighborhood.Puts you in legal control of a property for a specified period of time without having to actually own the property.Time to shop for and obtain the best financing.Major maintenance and repairs are the responsibility of the owner; you take care of nothing but minor maintenance.Profits ...in case appreciation occurs and you decide to sell in the future.The difference between what you paid and any increase in fair market value is all yours!

If these expenditures for the STR occurred prior to the In Service date, then you are not permitted to deduct most of these expenses and should be depreciating them instead.Your CPA is scared because they know something isn't right, but they don't know WHY it's not right. 

I considered that, when it snows, the outer limits of the road are a bit more difficult to make out.[3] Install cameras to document incidents, should they occur (which I would obviously inform the guests about in the Turo listing).

I want to get a handle on what services are occurring if any i'm not aware of and how happy the tenants are with the services.
