To avoid going through the same poor experience, keep reading.Even if someone gives you a referral here, do NOT make the mistake of assuming that the PMC will meet your expectations, just because they met the expectations of the referral source.In our experience, the #1 mistake owners make when selecting a Property Management Company (PMC) is ASSUMING instead of CONFIRMING.It's often a case of not doing enough research, as they don't know what they don't know!

I just made an excel model and you're right! 

I think the major branches of STR that owners need to know are -Financing, Market Research (you technically have it already in Cape Coral), Property Selection (what makes good STRs, regulations, analyzing, etc.), Designing and Furnishing (amenities, design, theme, linens, etc), and operating (Insurance, Property management or self-management, Tech & Tools, Cleaners & handy people, etc)All of these could be covered depending on who you work with that can cover each topic. 

Whichever you select must apply to all assets in the estate.But you still get the new basis at time of death, regardless if it is sold within 6 months.

Excellent, thank you Kevin.

My suggestion would be to select someone with the most forum posts or most reviews.

That is excellent information.

It’s definitely still possible to make the numbers work with a Cape Cod rental, but you’ll need to be selective.

Wayne - Perhaps you could share some of the analysis (in excel) to understand more about the numbers.

I have limited knowledge of Sub To deals, despite Pace Morby's excellent efforts to make Sub To well know (Sorry, Pace, it's me, not you!)
