We start the process in my organization at a $250 default.

Quote from @Bruce Woodruff: Quote from @Jonathan Greene: Quote from @Bruce Woodruff: I think that this BP forum takes on that deal-killer function very well......at least it can if/when investors take the time to post their questions and concerns.It should, but because some (not all) investors are fragile about criticism or prefer an echo chamber, it often falls into a back-and-forth where we are trying to help on our own time, and they are rejecting it and calling us naysayers.

I was determined and wanted something that I could sustain for the long term for my family's livelihood and control the effort I put in and the results I got from that effort.I specialize in sourcing properties for fix and flip investors nationwide (wholesaling, but with real-world experience and closed profitable deals for myself and my investor partners) with a roadmap to acquire rental properties as finances permit.A lot of our deals are currently coming through organic search as I have a background in substantial traffic generation through search engine optimization and organic means.

In addition to the issues with debt costs, the properties don't seem to be functioning in a manner that will lead to profitability or even break even.

or should I just wait for the reviews to come in organically from outside bookings?  

During the summer months there are a few events, functions and festival type activities going on so you get a few bookings around that.

Both screen doors upstairs do not function correctly.Plumbing problems-The garbage disposal in the kitchen was not cleaned, is smelly and the rubber is flipped outwards.The bathroom sink in the smaller bedroom does not drain correctly despite us using an entire bottle of drain cleaner on it.Common areas that are not kept clean or have garbage-There was no attempt to clear the patio of years of accumulated debris and filth.

So this is some kind of communal organization - there is a "mentor" at the top, and a bunch of "mentees" who do work for each other/for the mentor.Hopefully the asset is all in your name and your name only. 

Guests appreciate functionality more than anything, so as long as they’re clean and do the job, you’re good to go.Little details like this can make a big impact on guest satisfaction.

It offers monthly accounting reports, online payment options, website creation ability, maintenance requests (filtered by property), advertising, online tenant screening, lease creations and tenant/property match functionalities.
