Understand the fees involved and calculate the total cost for an entire year of management so you can compare the different managers.

While Reonomy is not comparable as it's for commercial properties, Propstream is. 

It's obviously a lot more complicated to compare the different business models, making the blanket statement "Us commishes are 3x higher" extremely flawed logic.

The inspections alone cost me $1,300, but that upfront investment saved me tens of thousands of dollars and spared me countless headaches.In short, buying older homes requires more diligence and negotiation, but when done right, it can be incredibly rewarding.

There will always be demand in the market (it's not like some covid markets that could disappear as vacation destinations almost entirely over the next decade), and the regulation risk is as near to zero as you can get in this industry so long as you buy in the approved tourist zones (again, compared to some smaller/less mature markets where they could outlaw STRs tomorrow).For short period cash flow there are better options. 

Sounds like a lot of moving parts and hoops for the amount of tax savings, but that's just my risk/reward profile speaking.

Check online reviews and interview multiple contractors to compare bids.
