Obviously, there's more risks but with anything in life that deals with money there's always a risk.There are cases over in Alexandria where people are doing Arbritage using Airdna I found most of the places that are 4 bedrooms under most of the time are being rented out and STR'd by the tenant just by cross-referencing with Airbnb hosts and asking around I found out a large amount of hosts of STR's over there are renting out the property so I do know that it is not only possible but frequent at least in Alexandria Oldtown area. 

I live over in Gadsden, frequently travel Birmingham, and dying to know what you see in Birmingham.

Checking property tax records is a good idea—frequent turnover might indicate investor issues, but it’s not a dealbreaker if everything else checks out.

I put almost everything on our cards and pay off a minimum of twice a month, usually more frequently since you don’t know exactly when the info will be pulled by the credit bureaus.

I'd recommend looking in our market. it's not as frequent as Akron. find a good agent in the market using the agent tool and I'm sure you'll be doing fine! 

Every system you try will have flaws, or you may salivate over a feature that appears in other software.Some familiar names are mentioned frequently: Stessa, Apartments.com, RentRedi, TenantCloud, Innago, RentManager, Avail, Rentec Direct, Doorloop, etc.I recommend conducting thorough research on each app online to understand their offerings, pricing, etc.

Do you find that your airbnb's are rented out frequently?

The first thing I'd recommend is focus on a market where you either 1) currently or have previously lived, 2) have family/friends that live there, or 3) vacation there frequently.

Choosing markets with direct flight access simplifies logistics.After setup, frequent visits are unnecessary if you have a reliable team and good communication.
