Short Term Rental Tools Needed

[Louis Zameryka]

Hi Everyone, 

I am buying a 3 bed 2 bath condo in Orlando at Vista Cay. I intend to run it as an STR but I have found that if I hire a management company i will be cash flow negative. I will likely self managed instead. I am based in NY so this means I cannot be hands on.

I would love some advice and resources. Specifically 3 questions for the Bigger Pockets Family. 

1) Does anyone have a list of Short Term Rental software they use to self manage that they would recommend? 

2) Does anyone have a best practice guide or check list for someone self managing at a distance? 

3) Does anyone in the Orlando area have a great cleaner/maintenance company they would recommend? 

Thanks in Advance BP Fam!

Just my opinion but my stack is...

1. SmartBNB

2. Pricelabs (pricing tool)

3. Hostfully (guidebook only)

4. Stessa (accounting)

5. Google Voice Phone number

6. My cleaner uses Resort Clean that syncs with my SmartBNB calendar.
