Reinforce entry points with security bars, and consider a monitored alarm system or joining a local neighborhood watch for extra protection.

I've had issues with their system not notifying me when a tenant has a maintenance issue and there are times the site is requires me to clear my cookies before I can see anything in there.

I like RentSpree because the prospective tenant can upload all of their docs into the system and the system auto-emails all references to confirm.

I think you did a great job highlighting both the pros & cons of student rentals & you definitely have the systems in place to keep scaling.

Every system you try will have flaws, or you may salivate over a feature that appears in other software.Some familiar names are mentioned frequently: Stessa, Apartments.com, RentRedi, TenantCloud, Innago, RentManager, Avail, Rentec Direct, Doorloop, etc.I recommend conducting thorough research on each app online to understand their offerings, pricing, etc.

Have a system in place already if you ever grow bigger or expand, don't have to change it later or figure it out later. 

First good old politicking, find all of the other owners who can vote and see if they will agree to vote with you to allow STR or even to amend the bylays.

While the IRS does not mandate a physical site visit, the IRS cost segregation audit technique guide (ATG) does suggest conducting “field inspections.”It’s important to note that the ATG is not an official IRS document.It serves as a guide and cannot be used, cited, or relied upon as an authoritative source.However, the recommendations in the ATG are worth considering.According to the guide: “A field inspection is recommended to document the physical details of the building, type of construction, materials used for construction, the assets contained in the building, the size and types of building systems, and any land improvements that were included in the purchase of the property and the condition of that property at the time of purchase.”So while the IRS does not require a site visit for cost segregation studies, following the guidance from the cost segregation audit technique guide can be beneficial.
