How can I effectively address the concern of losing Airbnb reviews when convincing a potential client to switch from Evolve to my local property management company?

GoalMy objective would be to go with a MFH, 2-4 units, higher would be better.

Your best bet is to read information from public blogs that approach both options objectively.

My objective is to buy about an acre of land, that is already leveled, access is being done, and utilities are going to be 5 feet from the property; and then build 3-4 shell retail spots on my plot, owner occupy one of them with a business and lease out the others.I am meeting with a developer this weekend, but have some wrong numbers regarding the average cost of building a shell space. 

The property would be in a C+ to B- type location, with cash flow as the main objective and appreciation second (75/25 split).

If you have massive liquidity then you might overcome that objection with the lender. 

Remember, no system is perfect, so avoid the temptation of constantly chasing after the next shiny object.

Because everyone is with shinny object syndrome, or chasing some scheme, gimmick or what not.

If so, that would remove one major and valid objection to letting unsupervised strangers into houses.In my own business, an applicant can apply for an apartment before touring it.

Or maybe by then you will just bypass the STR thing and go a different direction.STRs are a lot of work and not the shiny object they used to be.
