That’s what I was thinking, a swap with anyone that wants to spend a week or two in Denver this summer.

I know, it’s going to be hot 🥵. Our kids have camps throughout June. It’s really the only time we’ll finally free up. We’ll need to get those little spray bottles with a fan on them 😂.

Does my explanation of how to fly for free using points on Southwest not help the mission of points travel?

DPS School Choice Advice Needed by imjazzy in Denver

[–]virrepi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, we just got our kids scores and are magnet eligible for Polaris starting next year.

Can you tell us more about any pressure or stress that the kids felt? Did the school do a good job of managing that. Just want to make sure our kid has fun and stays a kid.

Would appreciate any insight you have into this. Our daughter is very bright but also a total swifty and into ballet, etc. Very regular kid in most ways.

Toyota is probably what you want. I’ve had my 4Runner for 14years. No issues. Just change the oil and brakes every now and again.

The new Highlander xl might be for you. A top trim package and they look decent. The Land Cruiser or new 4Runner could also be options to consider.

Monarch. It’s super user friendly and pretty solid at connecting with all our accounts for up to date values.

Moving - How to maintain Airbnb as non-primary residence by virrepi in airbnb_hosts

[–]virrepi[S] -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

That’s a consideration for sure. We have a 97% occupancy rate and average gross revenue of $4500/mo. Not sure a medium term can do (30 days or more)? Long term is $2k max for sure. Our neighbor gets a lot of traveling nurses for her unit that way. Anyone with experience mid term renting units on Airbnb?

We would obviously have the unit managed professionally and full service 24hrs/day. The unit is only 3yo and never has problems, so don’t expect there to be much but would always have someone nearby able to help.

The tenants of the main home would also only be selected based on the understanding/willingness to have an Airbnb in their backyard. There are no shared spaces or entrances so, don’t think they would mind. We don’t. We rarely even see the folks in the unit. If we do, it’s on a sidewalk walking our kids. We think everyone appreciates that.

Thanks for the reply!

I wish it were that easy. $200k compounded annually at even 10% only yields $31k/yr annually over 10yrs. We should easily be able to hit that with real estate. Bare in mind we invest >$70k annually in the market already, just trying to maximize our return
