What short term rental platforms/sites have worked well for you that I should consider posting the property on?

Sponsor is regularly seen on-site at every property in their portfolio, regardless of personal cost. 

I was not impressed as they would not provide any references for reviews, they sited privacy concerns, which I thought was unusual. 

Austin has a few (check out @krisclarkk on IG) but I would go find a few of the bigger cabin or glamping sites to see who they used.

Did you buy this property site unseen?

We are listed on 15+ sites.  

Because we use Buildium it shoots our vacancies out to all the big sites like Apartments.com, Zillow, etc.  

@Mel Watt Check out www.buildium.comI use this site for my rentals

My buddy and I have both ended up with minorly flooded houses despite the property managers telling us that all the taps had been turned off.If you’re buying out of state, ask potential property managers if they have local staff on site or if they outsource their inspections to a vendor (common for larger PM companies).When I model returns, I assume appreciation on B-/C+ properties at 1% above inflation.

You may want to use listing spark- which will provide MLS (and other marketing sites) exposure for a fee.
