While it might feel like an extra charge to tenants, these packages often provide value that indirectly benefits the property owner as well—like reduced maintenance calls or ensuring the property is better protected.In my experience managing a large portfolio of properties, these fees are becoming more common due to the thin margins in property management.

It adds extra protection for your assets.

This is interesting and I look forward to the feedback.But, I don't know if I want extra buoyancy in a hot tub?

Lock away extra supplies; trust is great, but accidents (or curious kids) happen.

We have a big place so it is families and groups.I do ask guests before booking if they are celebrating any special occasions and I will add some extra things to the welcome box that fits if I can.

If the answer is yes, then it's a no brainer to make minimum payments on your 2.8% interest rate mortgage, and use the funds that you would have paid extra to pay it down faster, to either invest in more real estate, the market, or anywhere else where you can get a ROI > 2.8%.If the answer is no, then feel free to aggressively pay it down as fast as possible, to become debt-free faster, and just have a large amount of money in savings or to splurge with.The bottom line is that your 2.8% mortgage is GOOD debt.

Anyways, on my latest project, the title came back yesterday and revealed two extra parcels of land deeded to the seller under the property I was under contract for.

There is usually extra charges on closing to pay for that service… but it is minimal.All the best!

From an operational standpoint you might also want to consider the cost of any extra tax returns that are needed by the entity as well as any extra accounting fees.Good Luck!
