I have needed them to find any of their own vendors yet, as I uploaded my preferred vendor list.

The two reasons are clients do a hybrid approach is either to maximize revenue or because they prefer MTR bookings and we just use STR to fill the gaps. 

Most investors seem to prefer the area around Memphis or the Gulf, but like I said, I invest where I know. 

In some cases, anonymity is healthy, but this depends on your preference.

I can assure you they don't have all real estate titled the same.A lender will finance your real estate because the real estate makes sense, your track record/balance sheet  and your personal guarantee.

If the liens against the previous owner are insignificant then I would prefer to purchase the property from the owner and not have to deal with competition.

I prefer good deals in established markets that already have some form of permit structure.

This is particularly beneficial in popular tourist areas where demand for short-term lodging is high.Flexibility: Owners can choose when to rent their property, allowing them to use it personally during off-peak times.Support for Local Tourism: STRs provide a unique lodging option for tourists, helping to boost the local economy by attracting visitors who may prefer a home-like stay over traditional hotels.Diversification for Investors: STRs provide real estate investors with an additional income stream, especially if they own properties in tourist-heavy areas.Cons:Strict Regulations and Higher Fees: San Antonio recently updated its STR regulations.

Some may prefer STRs, fix and flip or wholesaling.

Preferably someone patient who doesn't mind answering a million questions.Thanks in advance!
