We invest for long term buy and hold in good areas B+Due to extreme highly demanding W2 jobs we are looking for credible FULLY vertically integrated turnkey companies to partner with.

But if you're willing to take a tiny leap of faith, I think the returns are solid, the diligence and the integrity are there, and the states/markets/submarkets and the asset class are thumbs-up.

This is the value of working with a vertically-integrated company!

I have a vision of building and developing mobile home communities in upstate NY that are vertically integrated to allow future members to choose from a catalog of homes, have them installed, provide them with financing options, and make the process of selecting, buying, and living in the community very smooth.Since this is my first time doing this, I would love to chat with an experienced mobile home developer on the following items:Zoning - navigating the zoning process to allow the community to be allowedStart up costs - I am a finance person who would love to better understand start up costs - septic / electrical / water / pads / roads / etcOn Going Maint Costs - in building our business case, I want to build a conservative financial model to capture all re-occurring expenses - utilities, landscaping, capex, septic clean out, etc.I know this is a lot, but would greatly appreciate talking to someone who is an expert in this asset class!

I use buildium which is a good value and I think the integration with tenant turner alone saves triple the hours needed to be worth the cost.

@Kevin BrownI use QuickBooks Online (QBO) for my flipping business, Airbnb, and bookkeeping clients.QBO has every feature to run a business, excellent reporting features, and integration with other software.

For larger accounts with PMS integrations VRBO is a passthrough and we are the merchant of record. 

Anyone that is looking at your assets is always going to need to factor in property management, so you can show that as a real expense (and really make it as high or low as you want).I work in a vertically integrated real estate and development company, and I cannot imagine how things would run if we did not have an internal property management company that essentially works for the other companies but also stands on its own.

To my knowledge, Hostfully is the only platform that can integrate multiple Airbnb and VRBO accounts.

For this I plan on charging 10%  of rental income as management fees to LLC-A.Some of the benefits of this vertical integration brought by LLC-B is: (a) Ability to contribute to retirement plans (solo 401K, etc)(b) home office deduction(c) health insurance plan premium, among others.
