@Anthony Wick yeah I wish tenant estoppel was unnecessary but it just makes it easier if anything ever were to be in dispute, especially in my state. 

To make it easier on both parties, I would simply make the introduction and if they go under contract I will set up a referral fee with the property owner to pay me for the introduction. 

But it does get easier to decipher the good from the bad and the helpful from the unhelpful.  

I think you'll find it's easier than you're initially thinking.

I personally say yes, as you can target direct bookings much easier.

I have a call this week to explore this option for hosts and see how PMSs can make this transition easier.

Seems to be easier.  

I can only put 1 unit on the subplot but it's a whole lot easier than turning the duplex into a triplex and then rezoning. 

As a first-time investor, you might find it easier to start with properties built after 1975, as building codes improved significantly around this time, particularly regarding wiring and plumbing, which can reduce the number of surprises and costly repairs.

Definitely a more niche type of product, but, incredibly useful, especially across the Midwest where many rental properties are less than 100k.
