I have also come across jurisdictions where escrow accounts are regulated and mandatory, which adds another layer of protection by preventing developers from misusing buyer funds. 

My advice, if you have time, is to implement the subcontractor model and just hire out individually each component of the job.

Hi Chris, from what I can see it looks like you're trying to build an AI CFO/Portfolio Analyst and I have successfully implemented AI myself into my goal planning/tracking and financial forecasting, so I get what you're trying to do and why.

I’m working with a property in Brown County, Indiana that is fully approved for STR use under current regulations and has a documented operating history ($70k–$110k gross; ~$450 ADR).Zoning restrictions prevent adding additional rental units on the parcel, so this is a single-asset STR where value is driven by privacy, acreage, and guest experience rather than scale.Curious how other STR owners think about long-term value and defensibility in markets where zoning has tightened significantly.Appreciate any operator insight.

If the case was filed strictly for nonpayment, introducing a non-renewal can be seen as switching to a no-fault holdover.MA courts are very technical about this and often require the case to match the notice exactly.Timing of the non-renewal notice matters.If it was served after the eviction was filed, judges frequently require dismissal and refiling.If it was served before filing, sometimes it can be pled correctly from the start.Month-to-month vs. term lease.Since the lease ends Feb 28, issuing a non-renewal prevents an automatic month-to-month rollover, which is smart.But it can conflict procedurally with an active nonpayment case.Judges don’t like mixed theories.MA Housing Court typically wants one clean basis: either nonpayment or expiration of tenancy, not both at once.So yes, in MA it is very common that:• Non-renewal during a pending nonpayment eviction• Forces dismissal• And requires refiling as a holdover after lease expirationThat said, refiling as a holdover after Feb 28 can sometimes be faster and cleaner than fighting procedural issues mid-case.You’re not wrong to question it, but procedurally this is one of those states where doing the “right” thing can still reset the clock.

Even with family, clear agreements prevent problems later.

Your decent day job won't prevent you from taking the losses against your W2 taxes.

What occupancy rates are you using in your models - pre or post fee implementation? 

Prevention and screening usually protect owners more than chasing judgments later.A lease reduces risk, but clear processes and documentation are what usually determine how things hold up when tested.
