Here is what I was told or found out by some of the suggested companies.Safely- Told that they are only accepting new customers who have 20+ short term rentals at this time. 

The cost to get it permitted could be costly.

You’ll definitely want to dig into the zoning and permit requirements for your area to get a clear picture of what's allowed and what the associated costs might be.Also, don’t forget to factor in things like parking and whether you’d need to add a kitchenette to make it a viable short-term rental (STR).

One that has strict STR permitting with exceptions for owner occupants would be a bonus.

Also, we permitted you to have one dog.

The way I know is; I send the company a list of my customers and when I get the list back the email addresses and phone numbers are accurate.SInce, it sounds like you have not used this type of service before, I will tell you what to expect for and and every other service provider.If you send any company a list of property owners that you own and you want the company to give you the phone numbers and email addresses this is what you can expect .Send the company 3,000 property addresses - you will receive about 1,000 phone number and 850 email addresses.

I noted the year-over-year increase in STR permits, the decrease in average nightly revenue, and the sentiment that economically-incentivized sellers would flood the market after this winter season (effectively increasing housing supply and decreasing prices).

You can set up templates to save time and customize them to match your brand.

Many cities in the NW will require a permit to cut those down I know where I live you cannot cut a tree without a permit and you need to get an arborist to write a report that the tree is a danger. from what i see I dont  think the arborist would need to go on the other property to do a report but leaners can stay that way for years and years.
