If I am literally legal bound in fealty to my seller, well, what do you expect, I'm going for blood, ALL the blood, every last drop of it....

It is not bad to bring in new blood to a podcast, while I have not listened to the podcast in years,just looking at the profiles of the old and new it appears the new host has a lot more experience than prior hosts. 

For us it varies by market but in our primary market 15% plus a small monthly fee to help cover software costs etc if it's a lower gross property.That's full service, host doesn't have to worry about anything and can forget the property even exists if they want to.We do have tiered services where it's 10% (w/ no or lower monthly fee) if the owner wants us to only do one side of it (either manage bookings but not guests/cleanings/maintenance, or vice versa).25-30% used to be more normal but that's legacy pricing now, for a couple of reasons.1) Of course margins are much thinner for owners now that revenue has generally come down across the board from the peak, while home prices and interest rates have risen alongside that.2) Probably even more important, a simple supply/demand equation, particular to the case of increased supply. 

It was a blood bath for them. 

They say invest when theres blood in the streets but this means we are at the mercy of mother nature. 

That blood, sweat, and tears that you have put in gives you a competitive advantage in your area and that experience is priceless.

Politics will 100% get involved, that'll happen the closer we see some blood dripping versus November.

In my market (South Texas) the property taxes and property insurance is having a severe impact on the smaller owners, who do not have 30 year financing along with the housing assistance components, are in a dark place and they will naturally expect the (us) property managers to work like dogs and squeeze blood out of turnips for the cash flow. 

FX, Crypto, Flipping Houses, Sub2, Gold and Silver, Rare Earth Metals, Day Trading, Bernie Madoff, Vending Machines, Car Washes, Amway, any MLM.....whatever the dream of the day is.In all of them, you can make money, you can get rich, but almost always it takes a lot of hard work, blood, sweat, tears, missed holidays, working on weekends, money, risk, stress.

Once RE start going down Sharemarkets will follow, foreclosures, blood on Wall Street, more war and military activity, study history, study Phil J Anderson, Fred Harrison, Akhil Patel.
