We're looking to rent out our property on a room-by-room basis to travel nurses or co-op students.

Exceptions made for business travelers and reservation made by assistance.- Full guest list required for each stay. 

It's not literally scanning your OTAs for openings, but if you knew you had one upcoming, you could set this up in a travel group about that local area and shoot promos out to its members. 

The travelers might only stay a short period of time and only stay for a few months.

Many of our clients that are looking at STR are also looking at MTR as Charlotte is currently top 20 in the country for traveling medical professional demand (furnishedfinders), and we are currently one of the largest cities without a medical educational institution. 

I wouldn't go crazy with an accounting software but instead use excel.The other items likely paid for you outside of the PM company are mortgage interest, taxes, insurance, travel to the property, etc.Best of luck.

My sister in law and husband recently moved to LA into a single family home which is broken out into two units (upstairs and downstairs). 

More markets equals more time needed to track, meet with your team, travel to and from, tax season, etc.  

Outside of real estate, we enjoy traveling, sports, and learning.Excited to learn and connect with you all!

Everyone was incredibly neighborly, it almost felt a bit like traveling back a few decades.
