I was hoping there'd be a way to keep the super host status + reviews from our personal account but layer that within a new "brand" account - but it sounds like that may not be possible. 

If you feel confident in the tenants signing those long term leases, this is a slam dunk and you'll have a cash cow on your hands very quickly!

Try not to get locked in too long 4. we're not necessarily looking to go "all out" in terms of theming, but if we did, what kind of revenue does that bring/ROI can you expect, and which Renos for theming are best to do from a cost-benefit analysis, and what do they typically cost?

Just know that you won't make any money on the land for a very long time in most cases.

In fact, some of the best opportunities in real estate come from properties that others overlook—distressed homes with potential that just need the right investor to bring them back to life.If you’ve been in the game long enough, you know that distressed properties can offer huge upside, but they also come with their own set of challenges.

Not a bad return.Permitting for ADU shouldn't be too much of a challenge as long as you have the appropriate lot size, level grade lot, and ample space for parking - which is what the townships care most about. 

I wish you all success and a long fulfilling journey.

Also, no counties in Texas prohibit long term rentals.

Long time investor/landlord in NC and SC, let know if you have any questions?

I know this thing will pay off in the long run but don’t want to kill myself doing it lol That's why you pay a broker 1-2% to find the best terms and handle the deal for you, lol.
