We have a PM for all our properties and the only time we interact is to approve MX items over $400 or have a question about a statement.

@Dave Foster thanks for the connection!

No I have given only data.So when you add all this up, the first thing you need to do is get a website and make it credible.Polish up your social media accounts, create a professional banner and start creating content that is engaging.You want people to start interacting with you.Then provide value wherever you can (like I am doing on Biggerpockets).

I handle all inquiries, guest interactions, staff interactions etc.

STR is definitely different business than LTR which requires more time and interaction, for me it's impossible to run STR without PM especially if it's located far away.

Again, the BiggerPockets store has some books for this or you can learn by watching podcasts, reading blogs, and interacting on the forum.
