I agree sir. I too expected it was more about winter vs who's telling more lies at debates. I'll keep an ear open to others opinions. I appreciate your response.

Hey BP friends! I'm not one to usually post, more of a search and research kind of guy. However, I might as well earn my "first post award"... I've heard from 3 RE professionals (two knew each other) in the Atlanta GA area who have informed me that SFR sales slow down during an election year, primarily closer to election. I immediately want to call bluff on this but I had nothing to backup my thoughts. All I can think of is it cannot be worse than winter months, but I buy right and have sold quick enough so DOM was not effected that much. Has anyone experienced a slower SFR sales market closer to a presidential election? Jesse

@Tayler Ulmer - be sure to accept "long term" on your AirBNB.  You'll be surprised at how many people want to stay for 1-6 months.  This also saves on cleaning costs and your vacancy rate.  Make sure you are fully aware of the fee's they charge the renter though.  I learned that one quick.  On $1050 that you might think you're renting out the space for will be around $1200 on their end.  You may find way's to communicate outside of the website to give them a better deal while you collect more in rent. :)

Write down some weekly/monthly goals. Next time you have 5 minutes review them to make sure you're on track! Listen to podcast on your cellphone. I'll do this while walking my dog.
