But for years I was just working hard without seeing any benefit and I had to keep going even though there was no light at the end of the tunnel.  

It will familiarize you with the basic terminology and benefits.

They can help you with tax planning at the beginning of the year to help ensure you are taking advantage of as many tax benefits / incentives that you can.

To simplify the existing lease I thought about asking the tenant if they would be ok modifying the addendums to get rid of the resident benefit package and the building protection plan. 

Rates that are too low relative to the rest of the market are a red flag.Agreed granted many of the HML have a sliding rate scale based on  ARV  and experience  and maybe a little fico in there. lowest I have personally seen was 7% and 2 points.. and of course junk fees.  

Any pricing-related tool offered by the OTA itself (think of VRBO, booking etc) is there to ensure you are getting heads in beds at any rate possible, just to ensure they are getting paid. 

Remember, they can always refer themselves😊Now, make it a goal to call at least 5-10 of these people EVERY day and ask a MAX OF THREE off the list below of who they know that:Just inherited a homeHad a loved one pass awayIs behind on their mortgage or tax paymentsHas a relative that can’t take care of their house anymoreHas a house they’re having trouble sellingIs facing bankruptcyKnows a probate attorneyKnows a bankruptcy attorneyetcWhy only three off the list per contact?

I work with a lot of other real estate related businesses and closing teams that refer business to us. 

I still watch them sometimes since every day, while eating lunch at work, I watch real estate-related videos on YouTube. 

But if its not related to that type of water damage, the other questions ask about present tense issues, and not past issues.
