Despite my efforts to keep all the input data consistent, I’m getting different rates of return from various rental calculators.

Cross-Reference Information: Double-check by searching both the Parcel ID and Owner's Name to confirm consistency.

I’d say give both a shot and see which platform fits your style better.Hope that helps!

During my time in the industry I learned to work systems so that I could consistently effectively list homes to get them sold in a timely manner. 

What I find is, markets where you can still find single family homes for $200k or less is where the cash flow is (percentage-wise).Once you get to the $250k homes, especially with rates where they are, you start to get very little cash flow.Ohio is consistently strong on cash flow.

The method consists of marketing/publicizing the guru to create demand for the initial “free seminar”, where a pitch is made for a low priced $99 - $199 weekend workshop.  

It will be a small number in year one, but it is wise to keep this logically consistent.

Platforms such as Airbnb now offer options for extended stays, blurring the lines between short-term and mid-term markets.10.

Establish some "safeguards" to keep them honest and consistently check their work.

I’ve had good and bad on either platform.
