If you leave someone a bad review does Airbnb automatically block them from booking with you again?

So taking out the $21k and 5% vacancy leaves me with $23,500 roughly expense wise.

That's going to leave a lot of disgruntled people walking around with no jobs and no prospects, demanding money and support from governments that are already bleeding. 

It's all up to what you're looking to do and if you can "afford" to break even for a while and wait for appreciation but there's no guarantees with that and could leave you in a tough spot.

On the other hand, we also don't want to leave money on the table if we are legally entitled to get reimbursed for some expenses such as the home office.  

I am about to give up and look elsewhere or leave the KSC market all together.

As for what is in the vicinity of the property I would get a chamber of commerce map or an online map and modify, leave it in the property.

When they went up on price I wanted to walk away but I cant help to think I would be leaving money on the table and a chance to build on my portfolio. 

That's a resource that goes away once you leave school. 

We wanted to leave a good amount of wiggle room.
