It took us a couple of weeks but we slowly increased their rankings unit they were on page 1 (based on search parameters of course) and they got a 10 day booking soon thereafter.We use Price Labs to check out the date of the last booking.

I had to go into price labs to see what I charged for those nights. 

UT game, but you should still expect to get reservations.Definitely feel free to adjust the Price Labs suggestions if something looks off.

In June this year we had a lab puppy that they let get on the beds, the couches, there was hair on the bedroom bedside tables, hair on the tables and lamp tables in the living room.

So, if our effective tariff rate on 4/1/25 was 2.4% and today is 18.3% per Yale Budget Lab and other reputable non-governmental sources, then we may see a severe 45% drop in trade/capital flows, assuming foreign countries respond with reciprocal tariffs and boycotts like we are seeing already from Canada and Europe. 

I own a pool at my house and once a pool water gets out of wack it can take multiple days to get it clear again.The 2x per week price seems pretty reasonable for that peace of mind.I bought a gizmo that will constantly monitor pool chemistry and send me alerts if things get out of whack.

I'd be happy to chat about the Find A Lender tool anytime and something we're working on in "the lab" right now to make the DSCR origination process as streamlined and user friendly as possible.  

I’m treating this property as a learning lab—using it to build systems I can use to grow the business later.With all that in mind, I’ve decided to hold onto the property just a little longer.It’s currently cash flow negative, but the proposed rent increase would bring it close to break-even.

I was speaking to my insurance agent and she said a client's lab puppy nipped a toddler and made a scratch that turned into an $18k payout from the insurance and that her client could not get insurance again.
