Are they a regular, full-service PM? 

.- **Proactive maintenance**: Regular inspections and quick resolution of maintenance issues to keep tenants happy and properties in good condition- **Transparent reporting**: Clear and detailed financial reports so you know exactly where your money is goingIf your current PM isn’t meeting these standards, it might be worth exploring other options.

But a lot of bank employees, real estate agents and regular people don't know it or they just don't believe it.

They're the ones working with those agencies on a regular basis and have the best referrals.As far as recovering the debt, try leveling with the tenant as much as possible so they grasp the seriousness of being sent to collections.

They teach ME things on a regular basis.

@Placeholder PlaceholderOne word of caution I would advise: If a community or local government is enacting restrictions and also regularly enforcing them, then its often a reflection of the local community sentiment which increases the chance of a neighborhood or nearby resident calling you in if they think you may be running an STR.

Hi Alex, I believe there is a Pittsburgh group that meets regularly but I would love to attend another gathering as long as time/place works.

I don't like the returns but we use regular savings accounts. 

.- It may take longer to find a tenant buyer compared to a regular renter.Let me know if I have missed something.  

We have regular evictions at this scale and they typically will take a few months up to six or seven months if the tenant contest/hires an attorney.
