You’ll need to manage the property more actively, stay on top of furnishing and maintenance, and market it effectively to your target audience.In Cleveland, most tenants looking for mid-term rentals prefer a price point below $2,200 per month.

She is active in that market. 

I'm going to keep track of my real estate activities in management of an STR, and will track the activities using an activity log.

Florida states define unlicensed real estate activity as a 3rd degree felony.

Every contact you know that actively does REI is your new best friend.

There are over 20 active CPAs here in Biggerpockets assisting RE investors with their tax planning.

To me using low-interest leverage is the best thing about investing in real estate, as well as forcing appreciation but that is a more active strategy than most comparable investments.

Active and pending sales will not count. 

I'm 24 and have a steady positive cash flow from my active income (a full-time job).

@Courtney HamiltonRecommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.
