I was the acting agent on the property and took a commission on the property but, again, I purchased this for myself.2) I routinely go from home to work (actual job) and then from work to either one of my properties as a property manager or to meet one of my clients to look at properties, etc.

I am looking to create a routine maintenance schedule for my single family house rental.  

I routinely attend the North Texas Association of Real Estate Investors (www.ntarei.com) monthly meetings and take some of their classes.

But in the absence of a rationale, and in light of how this comes almost two months after the routine inspection and how the only person communicating with me about this is the local Nationwide office's receptionist, it seems like someone needs to resolve some end-of-year shortfalls.

I work with over 100+ agents alone, to make this a faster process ill slice the number in half, so basically out of every 50 literally 48 of the agents sit in the office everyday, the other 2 are actually engaged with the clients and work outside of the office only going to the office for routine meetings and closings.

In my opinion properties well suited for vacation rentals have:A great location for touristsNear outdoor / recreation destinations (beach's, ski resorts, etc.)Near nature (on a river, lake, ocean, etc.)Or perhaps a great location for business / corporate housing (Downtown, near major companies, etc.)Decent demand year-round (If it sits vacant 40 weeks out of the year you would be better off with a long-term tenant).Great amenities (WiFi, TV, Furnishings, Linens, Coffee, small appliances, etc.)Accept credit card paymentsPool / Hot Tub is a nice bonusOutdoor space at the property (Deck, balcony, patio, BBQ area, etc.)Pet friendly (not required, but will get you more interest)If your property seems to meet many of the above characteristics it is probably well-suited for a vacation rental.Some major differences you will need to figure out (compared to long-term)Who will do routine housekeepingHow will you get the guests moved in and out (lock box, in person, etc.)What laws govern your locationsWhat tax implications (bed tax, reporting, etc.) will you have to figure outHow much extra will you need to charge to make all the above worth it.

Getting it pumped out for inspection is definatly a good idea, you should never have to pump out a tank for solids on a routine basis, if you have to then you system is not working properly. 

The property will be financed as a commercial straight note for the next 2-years with a corresponding 2-year lease with the couple and purchase option contract at our current asking price, so the principal payments don't necessarily translate here.The tenants will be responsible for routine maintenance, landscaping, snow removal, etc. 

routine ( you younger kids can Google it).

On more than one occasion I've been told outright lies =(  I also routinely send inspectors emails with super high resolution photos of repairs that are complete, to make sure there's a trail of breadcrumbs to follow later if I have an issue.One more question about Nevada Revised Statutes.Scenario ...Day 1: Noon - Go to property, post noticeDay 2: Go to property, tenant is not there, has to leaveWhen can he come back?
