I recently spent 80 hours like @Lucas Carl recommended, gathering information.I called local municipalities to confirm local areas were accepting or rejecting short term rentals. 

Their focus is on maximizing their markup rather than accepting a smaller profit to ensure the buyer can profit from the rehab and become a repeat customer.

So if you're looking at the self sufficiency test that can be tricky!  

If you present it to him as 1 month deposit being returned and will he agree to accept half to settle things and explain otherwise the money gets returned to both and they will have a dispute about it for a long time potentially.

Being new I would say no prior evictions will be accepted.

Fingers crossed in 7 years I have not had to test my coverage, but in the area of my rentals a golf cart is expected with the rental.

Once you have a shortlist, sign up for an account with each one and test them extensively to see how they function.

Do you accept pets?

As not all your lists registered and accepted advertorial messages on your site...3) A colleague told me that auto blast sms campaign is illegal, you need to send manually to each one of them... how we do it when we talk about thousands daily ?

Then we look for acceptable rental history for last 2 landlords, unless same place for 3+ years.
