Saw one of my properties go up 4x; it was definitely low to start, but that's a painful shock nonetheless. 

I'm considering moving out of state when I retire and am factoring in health care costs in the future. 

We not only lost our hard-earned money but on top of everything, our health suffered, I had several sleepless nights due to the stress and anxiety that this horrible experience created for my wife and me.After the buy-back was completed, I approached Maverick to at least help us with our losses by requesting us to give back ~$6000.

That is not scientific at all and would be a pain to look at every day to see if there are short term bookings.   

My suggestion is focus on the QUALITY OF THE CONTENT.CREATE CONTENT THAT ADDRESS THE PAIN POINTS OF YOUR AVATAR.At the end of the day, there’s no magic formula, there is no way to game the algorithm as it keeps changing anyway, jist ge consistent and post quality content.

Most likely you have a tenant that just wants to break the lease without penalty BUT any health or safety concerns must be taken seriously and treated delicately. 

You will, of course want to do some homework to identify the bank that Stessa is using and ensure they are FDIC insured and in good health.

OBX is a great place, but it will take a very long time to be cash positive based on its current pricing, management fees and the short season.We were going to also use it during offseason but its just a pain to get too.

I do a lot of seller financing and personally keep track of it all myself but it can be a huge pain. 

One of our properties is in Marlborough and it has been a pain.
