Well, after throwing away food,  moving out for 2 weeks, cleaning everything we had exposed, this adds up to several thousand dollars.To me, this looks very negligent as this was by a GC that hired a sub. 

I think CoC returns above 10% are what attract most people to bring on the headache of tenants versus throwing their cash into the S&P.

You can usually charge higher rents, especially if you target the right audience. 

They asked me what features investors would actually find useful, and it made me realize I don’t have a great answer.So I figured I’d throw the question out here.

If there’s a more reliable local rent comp tool you’d recommend, I’m all ears.My $9,300 monthly total is the actual all-in payment, but I round to $10K for analysis to account for property tax increases, landscaping, and now the new trash fee.The property is in Grant Hill — not the easiest neighborhood, but it’s still pulling STR/MTR demand (budget-conscious visitors to SD, mostly).I was also banking on more favorable interest rate cuts along with continued appreciation — both of which didn’t play out as quickly as I expected, throwing off my original projections.Regarding your question on my underwriting prior to purchase — can you clarify what you mean specifically?

I've been educating myself on meta ads recently regarding the use of lists as seed audiences since meta cross references them with existing accounts and targets them.Also, do you have specific venders that you use for boots on the ground operation such as site visits / photagraphy?

Give updates on properties you’ve looked at or analyzed to keep your audience engaged, so when they stumble upon a potential situation, you are the first one they think of.Good luck!

A slow shoulder/off-season can throw off projections if you’re not ready for it.Financing risk: With $300K down, your leverage is low (which is safer), but it also ties up a lot of capital.

Not wanting to throw the contractor under the bus, I requested an inspection through the service that I use for managing service requests.

If you don’t factor that in, it can really throw off your cash flow.
