A pro tip is if you call shared office spaces or co working spaces in your city they also offer virtual mailbox services at usually better prices than the national ones!

Using a lower-cost skip tracing service and then a call/mail/sms campaign service separately may reduce your costs.

I also help out of town LLs with consulting services to stay on top of their properties here. 

Not sure where your STR is located, but you might want to look into local STR management companies that also offer staging services.

Here’s the quick-and-dirty lowdown to get you started:1️⃣ Where to Look:LoopNet & Crexi: Good for commercial deals, though the best ones go fast.MLS (Multiple Listing Service): Access through a realtor for hidden gems.Auction Sites: Think Auction.com or HUD homes for distressed properties.Direct Mail Campaigns: Target landlords with older properties (especially those with code violations).2️⃣ Systems for Finding Deals (Step-by-Step):Set Your Criteria: Market, budget, unit count, rehab level.Build a Deal Funnel: Use LoopNet, Crexi, wholesalers, auctions, and brokers.Analyze Quickly: Use a property calculator to see if it cash flows.Direct Outreach: Contact sellers or property managers directly.Get Your Network Tight: Property managers, realtors, contractors—they’ll drop the best leads.3️⃣ What Makes a Good Deal:Cash Flow Positive from Day 1.Below Market Value (usually needs rehab).Upside Potential: Think rent increases, better management, or refinancing options.4️⃣ How to Become the Better/Best:Study the Market Like a Hawk.

Imputed expenses are important because they will be included as Operating Expenses when a lender appraiser does its appraisal, and also when the lender calculates its Debt Service Coverage Ratio.Regarding pest control, it's not just monthly roach spraying.

Is there a no win / no fee type of service I should be searching for?
