Regarding bookkeeping/accounting, 100% of the feedback I've gotten from REIs who have tried to have a VA help with their bookkeeping is they had no clue what they were doing and they caused more issues than before they were involved.There are great groups out there such as the "Bookkeepers for Real Estate Investors" Facebook group where VAs can get the education they need to be productive within REI bookkeeping.

So far I've discovered that we will need to acquire multiple permits and an STR license in order to legally list our property as an STR in the Baraboo, WI area.

I'm only at 2 properties as well, so it's a bit overkill for me, but I'd rather have the systems in place now than scramble once I acquire more units.I pay for BP Pro, so I created accounts for the free sponsored platforms they have.

That would be a great way to get started in a new area and acquire another asset.

I'm very interested in exploring innovative financing strategies to acquire and manage properties.
