  1. [/csb] Wife and I bought a place in Pagosa Springs last year [/csb]

     

    Got a ton of snow this year and Wolf Creek was a blast and super affordable.  They're not bullshiting about how scary the drive up can be though.

    Man...I was a big fan of Reyna's game (son and coach), but I don't see how you have them anywhere near the program after this. They are absolutely toxic. 

    Why would Gio not be on the team?  He wasn't the one that sent the messages and threatened blackmail.  Did he have an attitude problem?  Sure.  But he apologized to his team for it and it seems as if they had moved on.  

    His parents however - yeah I wouldn't answer those calls or texts anymore.

    Very jaggy but that's not going to stop Liucci from calling him a 5 star. 

    "In a truly groundbreaking turn of events, Jimbo has once again proven his prowess as an elite recruiter by stealing a 5 star db from sitting national title winning and former Texas coach Mack Brown."

    One of my kids faces his kid's select team in baseball tournaments pretty regularly. Next time they play, I'll walk up and say "Hi, I'm closetojumping. I know a guy/girl, not sure, from the Internet named Pam Cummings. They'd really like the GM job for your team of jackoffs. If you're not going to stop embarrassing the city with that non-stop slow-motion train-wreck grease-fire of a sports franchise, at least hire someone that will eventually give UT some of that sweet, sweet NIL money. Thanks." 

    I'm not sure how it will go over, but hopefully I can get that message out before being tackled by his bodyguard. 

    I thought you ran a 4.4?

    Picking Pagosa Springs as a STR location could prove to be challenging.  There is a concentrated effort to eliminate/restrict STRs.  One large, popular neighborhood south of 160 just adopted a no STR policy.  This was a HOA vote and it passed by a large margin.  A large neighborhood north of 160 has an amendment out for vote right now.  It is expected to pass and will eliminate STR.  If you are in the town limits, voters approved $150/month per bedroom tax for all STR, regardless of occupancy.  There is a lawsuit to stop this fee, but you get the idea.

    Our realtor is the one who's challenging the tax changes.  The house we bought isn't in the city jurisdiction.  Our permitting will go through archuleta county.

    We close in 7 days so it shouldn't be too big of an issue.

    The only pitfalls I can think of are the communities that are trying to get eliminate STRs.   Don’t know how long it’ll take for that to catch on in the legal sense (if ever) but if it ever does, that might be a concern.  Wife and I looked doing the same on a couple places in Durango, but cooled on it a bit. 

    Pagosa was a weird one.  Lots of HOAs have specific restrictions adopted and most of the town north of HWY 160 won't allow STRs.  If you stay south of 160 you have to go through the county to get a license which seems much more straightforward.  The real pain the ass so far has been finding contractors to make small changes and updates to the house.

  8. My wife and I (no pics) decided to take the plunge and invest in a short rental in Pagosa Springs, CO for passive income/part-time usage (1-2 months a year).  According to AirDNA, Rabbu, and Mashvisor it should be a pretty healthy investment if we play things right and evolve's 10% management fee has made the deal a little sweeter.  If the cards fall correctly and we pump all the income back into the loan we should have the home paid off pretty quick and are planning to run the story back again if it all works out.  Anyone else deployed a similar strategy?  Are there any pitfalls or "gotchas" to the thought process?

    For those that have done something similar are there any tips you could share or thoughts on ways to maximize the top line revenue generation from the property?

    anybody had a watch serviced at martinez & hood in austin?

    I have.  Good folks.  Broke one of the pushers caps on my DSOTM and thought it was going to have to go back to geneva to fix and take months.  Took it to Martinez and Hood and they had me in and out in about 30 mins and fixed free of charge.

    I have a random itch for a Daytona but there is no chance I am paying above MSRP for it.  For you aficionados, when do you think this will calm down.  

    It's already calming down.  Here's an example from chrono24's price performance model if you scroll down.

    The same downward tick can be seen across almost every rolex model.
