Figured it'd be fun to kick off a thread for all the short term rental folks who've been knee deep in renos and unexpected chaos, what's the craziest thing that's happened during one of your flips?
Drop your stories, your wins, your fails and the lessons you definitely won't forget next time, let's trade some laughs and maybe save each other from making the same mistakes twice
