Personally If you like your current residence and hope to stay there long term I would forgo major improvements on my primary and use all investment savings to make you more money and cash flow. 

Sure, I could look for a higher paying job, but I was wondering if anyone has any creative short-term methods to improve my ratio.

Offering discounts for weekday or longer stays could also help improve occupancy.

Any capital improvements on a not owned yet property would involve a complex 1031 you’d want someone like @Dave Foster involved in. 

This journey that we're all on can be lonely, especially when it comes to balancing W2 jobs, kiddos and real estate investing. 

This move, representing a $900 million investment and the creation of 4,000 new jobs by 2035, positions Columbus, Ohio, at the forefront of technological and economic growth.

Great job!!

It's a great way to showcase the improvements made and helps appraisers not miss stuff.

My contractor mentioned he might've left them since he felt bad about up and leaving the job. 

Great hosts will be good neighbors, will contribute to local tourism and will pay their taxes and permit fees* A major area to improve on the proposal is the 1 hour time-limit for resolving complaints.
