I'm entirely STR focused as an agent as well, and work with pretty much exclusively STR investors, so I have my finger to the pulse of the regulatory environment here in a county, city, and even neighborhood basis.

Most brokers will want to protect their exclusivity on an off-market deal, as they put in extra effort to source it directly for you.3.

These same principles should be applied to anywhere you choose to invest.

A deed will not be issued for these properties until the federal redemption period ends, unless the federal agency chooses to redeem the property.

So I think if you have 4 units or more, it doesn't make any difference whether you choose Guesty for Pro or Hostaway.

The cherry on top is that one of the tenants is choosing not to renew as of 10/31.

We choose to rent it by the month again this winter to snowbirds!

If the owner has an exclusive right to sell contract with the, but you have found RWA buyer/investor, the owner by law has to pay them, too.

My account is disabled stating I needed exclusive agreements on my rentals.

If you aren't sure who to choose from, ask each of them for a meeting/consultation to break down your goals, the market, and the acquisition process.Once you've selected one, have them draft the offer for you and take it from there.The best agents are responsive, knowledgeable on the local market, have a strong supporting team (i.e. lenders, title, inspectors, title, etc.), and know how to put together a deal.As @Michael K Gallagher mentioned, you'd want to clarify whether or not your agent is also representing the seller.
