In my case, I just purchased my first out-of-state property and plan to operate it as a STR. 

Currently I’m operating it as a STR, but I need a new cleaner and the quotes I’m getting are in some cases double my nightly rate, and the amount it grosses is only slightly more than what it will do as a LTR.

Rents tend to rise over time, amortization steadily increases equity, incomes rise, so the investor has a lot of “cover” for unfortunate timing or operating “mistakes”.Number 2 - periods like 1932 - 1941 and 2008 - 2013 are much harder on this strategy.  

One for security deposit and one for operating/rental.

The best wholesalers operate ethically and understand the business.

If I am looking at a operating STR, I know where to make changes and opportunities.

The lifetime access fee for the training is nearly $3000.

If you are going to invest, make sure you know the operator well and that they are reliable.

Any feedback/suggestions are always helpful, and I think you could find it beneficial for your operations as well.

Standard PM software just doesnt have the sales features to keep up with operations and tools like Follow Up Boss are not geared towards PM's to do thier actual job.Would love to hear yalls thoughts.
