I take the issue of sponsors acting as fiduciary to their investors very seriously, regardless if they are legally required to or not, and plan to create a platform that calls out those who don't, and celebrates those who do.

@Sam Peterson You can utilize different online companies (web, phone apps, etc.) for this but if you're new to REI you could gain traction by making your own.

I can't seem to find much info online about this and I've had trouble finding contractors willing to take this on

By Thanksgiving (most even sooner) all will be back online. 

After you've got a lot of time invested in them, they will ask to communicate off platform, and say they're having their employer send you a check. 

Appreciate this platform, greatly.Thanks again!

Networking Opportunities: Are there local networking events, conferences, or online forums where I can connect with other investors and professionals in the Edmonton real estate market?

But, excel is totally fine in the beginning (in addition to your PM software to capture transactions outside of the properties).We use QuickBooks Online exclusively for all of our REI Clients.

Can anyone tell me where I go online to research what the law is in the states that are relevant to me? 

If you are used to the STR world, be aware that ff.com and the STR platforms behave very differently.
