It’s just too short compared to the more extensive ads from your competitors.

I could go on, but that is a decent short list. 

(An exception is if you own 5% of the company you work for)Agree, this is a great summary post on REPS with core concepts on how to qualify. .I think the complexity comes in when people have edge cases - it becomes difficult to write a simple short post that educates everyone.

I own a property in the Disney market and co-host/manage another 25 in the area.Disney I think is a good market if your goals are more aligned with traditional long term real estate goals, and a bad market if your goals are more immediate gratification and short term cash flow.The major benefit of the Disney market is that it's about the safest market you can find from a long-term perspective. 

Is it managing a property maybe short, mid or long term on your own?

Short-term rentals aren't passive.

Here is what you are teaching others:1.Perform a ton of research on how to generate leads.2.Listen to podcasts on your way to work.3.Question the meaning of life, listening to, and dissecting all that information.4.Find A list, Filter That List, Buy that List, Buy stamps, Buy mailers.5.Handwrite 5000 letters.6.Include a pen inside the envelope for “lumpy mail”.7.Send mailers.8.Experience a short-lived feeling of accomplishment.9.Followed by an intense sense of depression and shock upon receiving a ton of angry calls from said mailers.10.Get a ton of returned mailers.11.Skip trace these addresses.12.Pay for a new set of envelopes mailers and stamps.13.Resend mailers.14.Experience another short-lived feeling of hopefulness.15.Followed by an intense sense of depression and shock upon receiving a ton more angry calls from said mailers.16.Listen to more podcasts.17.Get a “AHA!”

Our first investment will be turning our primary resident into a short term rental. 

I'm looking to buy my first rental property this year or next in Florida and I recently attended a workshop on how to save on taxes using short term rental properties by a tax strategist named Karlton Dennis.

If there are 8 months left, not much you can do in the short term.An investor can buy the deal, and wait until the lease expires, and send a non renew.You can always offer one of the residents an incentive to leave, such as cash so you can have a vacant unitGino
