If the software is not simplifying your life or making you more accurate, you shouldn't use it.Software does have extremely helpful features like online payments, marketing syndication (click a button and your property is advertised on multiple sites), electronic document review/signing, maintenance tracking, and owner reports.

.: Quote from @Chris Seveney: @James WiseI was sitting next to a doctor at a conference who did a private money loan and lost $$200k then he did a jv deal where he became co-owner of a LLC, gave a personal guarantee on the asset and put money in the deal to buy it but didn’t put a lien on property so partner went and leveraged the assets as well and ran off and dr had personal guarantee.They then bought a property and renovated half of it then decided to knock it down….I had a successful shoulder surgeon ask me to list his apartment building that was under-performing.

So many people get anxious and want to sell their property, even if it's performing good.

How do they know what you are doing on a different site? 

It’s hard to find a lot of negative reviews as they’ve gotten Reddit threads removed and pour in fake reviews on sites from employees, family members etc. it’s not that hard to do a quick google search and see.

@Tanya Maslach most STR and MTR guests book site unseen. 

While it doesn't meet the 1% rule it's in a stable, desirable area that'll perform more consistently for you over time so it's worth the tradeoff in my opinion.

@Elton Tate when can you update us on how your property is performing?

To be safe, consider starting with standard percentages or slightly reduced figures until you have reliable data on the property’s performance.

Specifically:What square footage ranges are performing best?
