So if I understand sub to, you're basically assuming the mortgage. The owner doesn't really benefit much except for not having to pay a mortgage anymore?

@Matthew Irish-Jones Hi Matt I was looking at a duplex in Buffalo. Would love to connect and get your thoughts

@David Wilding thanks David, old post from 2017 but thanks for looking out 🙌🏼

Hello BP! I am from Long Island NY and looking for a new CPA/Tax Professional. I currently have one STR in another state and looking to add mid/to long term rentals in the near future. I would love to work with someone who is familiar with these 2 areas of investing. Hope to connect with someone soon and we can discuss more specific details.

Hello! I am refinancing my loan and they require a title search of course. They quoted me $2100 that seem like its right or too high? Any recommendations would be appreciated

Congrats on buying your first STR! So exciting :D I am also about a 2 hour drive from my rental in the Poconos and I self manage. I've put in all the systems to make managing it from afar a breeze. I usually head to the house once a quarter to check up on things and fix anything that might need to be repaired (and of course have some fun up there). Like the others have said, you'll want to integrate some software to help you manage your listing.

If you like some more information on managing, I started a concierge service there in the Poconos. I have a team in place that can help managing your rental very easy. Even if you didn't want us to help you manage it, I would gladly help with some pointers :) 

Thanks for the tag in this post! I would love to help if you are still looking for someone to help set up your rental. 

Hi @Lorraine Patterson 

I've had my STR in the Poconos for 3+ years with good success. I did have my ups and downs but that goes for any place you buy a home. I've got my team in place and we are doing great. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions. :)

Hi Jephte,

Right now it's the shoulder season so most places are only booked on weekends. That is expected with a 'drive to' destination like the Poconos. It's a great weekend getaway! I myself have a STR there and am starting to take on new properties for my new Concierge service. I have my team in place and it's a well oiled machine. I've been renting my home there for the past 3+ years. I'd love to connect with you. If you like, you can send me a DM and I can give you some more information.

 Have you tried turnoverbnb? Also facebook groups are a great place to look. Look for Pocono Owner Airbnb facebook groups and post that you are looking for those people. Also I'm starting a concierge service up there and looking to take on new clients soon. If you are interested, you can send me a DM :)
