Unfortunately there was a small kitchen fire in one of the units this week. 

I have all stainless appliances, leather furnishings, antiques, unique (and expensive) decor, game tables or arcades, large, smart TVs, wifi, and hot tubs.  

Hello landlords, who do you use to haul off old appliances out of the property?

@Daimyan Hutchison Buy the big items, cabinets, flooring, appliances, paint, tub, toilet etc.

It’s two stories with bedrooms on the second floor, large living room, kitchen, and half bathroom + laundry room on the first floor.

Also, completely rehabbed the kitchen which included granite countertops and also completely rehabbed the bathrooms.

Also, we haven't budgeted yet for landscape, appliances, hardscape other than concrete driveways, etc. 

I updated bathrooms and kitchens and painted throughout.

Basic rehab of cosmetic kitchen/bathrooms.

Although STR can seem sexy and the potential to make more than a long term rental, you also have to consider the start up costs...furnishing, linens, plateware, small appliances, washer/dryer, baby gear, decor, pictures, curtains, televisions, games, routers, professional photos etc etc.Hope this helps a bit, not trying to talk you out of it, just food for thought.
