 Hi @Kyle Butler! I'm a realtor and Airbnb host in Indy. My fiancé and I manage over 30 properties in Indy! I would love to help. 

Hi all!

I am an agent in the Indianapolis area, and work with a lot of OOS investors for STRs, MTRs, and LTRs. I have a handful of clients that are interested in seller financing, which I have learned a ton about! One of my clients looks at on market properties, and sends me a cash offer and a SF offer for each property they're interested in. I have has such a heard time pitching the SF, and I have never had anyone interested. How do I pitch SF well, and make it sound so much more worthwhile than a lowball cash offer? I am pitching these to other agents. 

If anyone has ideas, I would love to hear them! I just want to work as hard and I can for my clients, and it doesn't seem like I'm doing their SF offers justice. TIA!   

Hi! We manage around 30 properties in Indianapolis, IN. We use Guesty for PM automation, guest communication, and (building) a direct booking website. We use PriceLabs for dynamic pricing, and Breezeway for team management, cleaning automation, and assigning tasks for our handyman. Then, Slack for team member communication! 

 Thanks, @Sarah Kensinger for the referral! :) 

Hey Ken! Like said above, I would make sure the numbers work for the property you're looking for. Look on Airbnb and see what the competitors calendars, nightly rate, and amenities look like, and it should give you a pretty good idea what the numbers would look like for that home. 

It has become more frequent in the Indianapolis market, where people are putting "possible Airbnb" in the property descriptions, offering the home furnished to start as a rental. But, not a lot of people are very forthcoming when it comes to numbers, so I haven't seen it marketed with the full display of revenue, occupancy, etc. I think it could be a great thing to do, though, to get more eyes on the property than just a SFH!

It's a thing, but I would maybe just stick to renting, like @Avery Carl said! It's much easier.

Wow, this is super awesome! My fiancé and I personally arbitrage a unit, and it's awesome. It's a great way to start, and your only start up cost is furnishing the place, and securing the unit (security deposit, etc). 

It's good to get in young. There's so much to learn! BP forums and podcasts help, and there are SO many books that will teach you hoe to get started! Rich Dad, Poor Dad is everyones fav, and a great way to start!

Hi @Francis Caron! That's awesome, congrats! Good luck to you.
