Not sure if this is helpful, but I am local to Columbia, SC and have interviewed a few local companies which all seemed horrendous.

BASELANE seems like the key to keeping those costs down and making tax season much smoother.

I've exchanged our place with another host by on a 1-1 bases.Host share seems to have an interesting concept of exchange available nights but within 5 days.....so what typically is not rented.

In my opinion, your occupancy rate and min night stay seem in the ballpark for planning purposes at this stage.

I was hoping for some idea to secure the Promissory Note but it seems that's not available.Thanks for your response.

I want to create a GMB profile for a market I invest in, but I don’t have a physical office address in that state.I’ve been looking into virtual address services like iPostal1, but I’m concerned it won’t be approved by Google since they seem to have strict rules about virtual or P.O. box-style addresses.
