They're seldom home during the day and on weekends.The upstairs tenant texted me yesterday (I do have a separate phone line for our properties) saying she's having noise issues with the downstairs tenants: banging the screen door closed after she's gone to sleep on weeknights (11:00pm), talking on the phone at 1:30am, up and about at 2:30am on the weekend.

Cell phone service is still pretty bad.

I have 3 performing STR's in Central Florida and spend less than 3 hours week managing them.Now if you were to be an underwater welder with zero access to your phone for several hours a day, the solution is simple, you hire a manager!

A young guy I know bought a cute vintage camper, sprayed it black, cut a window in the side and built it out as a mobile coffee shop, which is now parked outside of events and staffed with college girls.

Text messages and phone calls go a long way here.

After some phone calls, I found out that many New England states don't have Oxford programs.

do they post their personal phone numbers on A BNB ?

I just gave the appraiser my tenants phone numbers.

Hey @Devin Bost, I would highly recommend a few things to help with this. 1) Have systems and processes lined out for any emergency you can think of.2) A spreadsheet of subcontractors/ vendors that could handle the situation that arises (plumbing leak, electric out somewhere, etc.)3) Your cleaning team and handy person should be utilized for some things.4) Something like Breezeway can give you 24/7 support around your property with a dedicated phone number line.

Ugly furniture and cell phone photos ... and I was grossing $3,000/mo.
