Put 5000 extra waddles in and charge them another 30k
I don't install. I tell people where to install and what to install.
BTW it is Wattles, not Waddles (common error).:wink:
And 5K of wattles would pencil out to about $ 715,300.00.:FIREdevil
Sounds reasonable given the labor crisis and seemingly every fucknut wanting to be colter wall/John Dutton
I fucked up.
$ 865K.
Split it with you.
Just because you enjoy the product (AirBnB) does have provide reason for its undocumented existence. Call it what you want (Rental House), it is a commercial operation.
Real Estate is regional, maybe even local. In Grand County, 80% of the homes are not primary residences. In the 30 years I've lived here, one motel has been build and a few have closed. There have always been STR condos but how it is overwhelming.
Danno, unless you plan on giving up and renting for the premium dates (holidays etc.), I'd say don't bother with the STR. Just getting a cleaner will be a problem. And yes, the second homeowner that need the income to "afford it" is part of the bid for that type of property that raises prices.
Are those the buffalo resistant wattles like we had to use in the park?Quote:

But now, the nice house is the vacation. The 7 TV's, the hot tub and baller kitchen. Its like the lazy, rainy Sunday afternoon is everyday. The house party weekend is pretty normal. Even for families. You see their habits after they leave. Residual party everywhere. Pizza boxes, edibles and so on.
^ This.
I believe Airbnb raises housing costs by decreasing the supply of long term rentals. Less supply generally increases prices. And I also believe Airbnb is bad for neighborhoods by replacing people that live there (and have more at stake there) with transients.
I get the feeling a lot of people that are favorable to Airbnb don’t live near STRs.
And it’s not like there aren’t a bunch of shitty Airbnbs.
I stayed at an STR where the power went out for a day. The owners were unconcerned.
Some of the pulling and washing sheets STRs require is legal maneuvering around services which would put them in hotel territory.
A different way perhaps of saying the same thing that tends to offend less property owners in that it is STRs are actually changing the demand structure.
I think of supply as the housing stock in aggregate. It is, in the short term, fixed save for new construction. But the revenue stream associated with the STR brings two new customers to the market that compete for that fixed housing stock.
"The Investor" for whom the property is a non emotional asset generating cash flow from STR income
"The Danno's" whom could not afford the property without supplementary STR income.
Nope, just the crappy straw stuffed into plastic netting.Quote:

I often ride the chair with an old chartered accountant who long ago told me owning/ renting out an LTR doesnt pay, I wonder what he has got to say about STR ?Quote:

If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck ... its usually a duck
up here you are capitol gains exempt only on your principal res and you cant deduct mortgage interest or anything really except what it costs you to move closer to where you will work
and BTW the BC gov has declared war on STR's
2024 colorado legislature considered a bill that would have changed property tax classification for non-owner occupied str's from residential to commercial lodging rates (it failed).. i imagine 2025 will consider it again, along with vacancy tax, pillow tax, property transfer fees, industry tax, etc etc for a lot of the reasons listed above: impact on housing supply/demand/prices, impact to local infrastructure/services, lack of funding of gvt subsidized housing programs, etc.
str industry and realtor's lobbyists will have kittens again - but it's an interesting debate.
unoccupied second homes, remote workforce, str's, r.e. investment company money (among many other factors) are all contributing to financial and housing problems (crises?) in some colorado mountain towns. i have no clue what the solution is.
Proper rant here, written by a friend.
https://slate.com/business/2024/07/j...y-housing.html
She is rightfully bitter.
Solid rant. At this point, we all know Jackson is what it is. Gone are the days of what used to be. The Almighty Dollar rules supreme. It's a freezing cold rodeo drive. Such is life. If my property 10/30/50x'd I'd cash out and move to Taos.
Time to dig a tunnel and run a train... oh, wait.Quote:

Jackson's home owners got what they wanted. They whored themselves out and now it's too late to start complaining about how their butt leaks.Quote:

Now that's a "rant".
I'll give Wilson Chick a 2/10 for the State of the State Not Really a Rant
Neck gets a 7/10 Its got come good elements like a bit of self loathing and name drop truth bomb but it needs more, maybe some imbedded hypocrisy and some more burn it down fuck you people call outs.
The Wilson Mom is just saying the same old thinly veiled bullshit. She pays lip service to the haves and have nots but then gets to her real motivations at the end.
"Moratorium on development" is just Jackson code for the "shut the fucking door behind me". She has some nerve to bitch about affordable housing at Stilson being a problem because a fucking wildlife tunnel. She cares about the working class until it fucks up her view.
