A year ago I had a home, a small cleaning business, and a spouse.

I live next door and love hosting and cleaning. 

You must make sure that the property is well maintained, cleaned thoroughly and that guess have a easy and seamless experience all the way from booking to check out.

I really like that market very robust for first time homeowners looking for clean move in turnkey homes 250k and under which are what my clients provide..

Quote from @Tim Lum: Just had my first performing note pay off early, and I have to say… this strategy is underrated.No tenants, no repairs — just monthly income and a clean exit when the borrower sold the property.

I have a network of tax professionals and can also assist with getting their P&L cleaned up.

Sounds like you're doing a mix of self-managing and managing for others which makes clean tracking even more important I’m a CPA and real estate bookkeeper and I work with investors across the country who are in a similar spotQuickBooks Online is a great option if you set it up the right way We set up our clients' books so that every property has its own class or location That way you can trackIncome by propertyDeductible expenses by property and categoryWhether each property is making or losing money month to monthIt also makes tax time way easier because everything is clean and categorized for your CPAIf you don’t need full accounting software yet and just want simple tracking Stessa can work too though it has some limitations and isn’t as customizableLet me know if you want help figuring out what’s best based on your setup or need help getting the structure right from the start Happy to point you in the right direction

If you’ve documented everything and handled things professionally (which it sounds like you have), I’d lean toward the non renewal, and keep things clean and simple.You’re not obligated to renew, and you’ve got a great case for just moving on.

Then factor in occupancy rates, seasonality, and all expenses like cleaning, taxes, insurance, and potential HOA fees.

A quick and clean closing can motivate builders to offer concessions.4.
