Even new construction l would want an idea of the quality of the build.

Managing other contractors, scheduling with them and the tenants, making sure they are on time, doing a good quality job, takes a lot of time, and having a good team to manage that is crucial.

That's about what they cost for quality.

Cities seem to want permit fees over outright bans (shocker), and that at least allows quality hosts to operate.

I guess the word has a positive connotation that could be misconstrued as being a good quality lender.

Everyone told me with so much to do on the day, best thing to do is get a high quality group to invest in and sit back. 

That's why I'm currently training new staff to ensure we can always deliver properties with the required quality standard and efficiency.By the way, do you think it would be interesting to offer some basic customizations, like themed paper products or towels, during specific holiday months? 

I guess I look at it different than you, one of my  biggest fears is something happening to either one of them and having to replace  the quality partners in my operation that they have become.

You can save money by buying smart, but don't buy cheap/lower quality because you get what you pay for and it may cost you down the road.
