Me knowing I am going to clean up while watching all the low level Realtors lose their minds over these NAR lawsuits. 

I recently pulled and cleaned a list to direct mail that I really liked..

It reached all the way to the ground... at least that was clean ice!

I know that most people who OWN a property and put it on airbnb claim the income on Schedule E ("passive income"), which avoids having to pay the 15.3% self-employment tax.I'm wondering if those who are practicing rental arbitrage by renting the place that they list on airbnb also claim the income on Schedule E, or if you claim it on Schedule C bc you don't own the place that you're listing on airbnb.Whether you own or rent the property that you list on Airbnb, the activities are the same: acquiring the property, furnishing it, activating utilities, listing it on Airbnb, hiring cleaning services, etc, etc.

Were you able to get title insurance and did/will you be able to get a clean title?

@Tyreek King-El Ideally you would want it be as 'clean' as possible.

We have a STR that will be weekly during the summer, so that cleaning, etc., is more easily plannable for us. 

Or if you wanted to run a real business, becoming a private lender would clean up, but it's a lot of work. 

I've used them for cash sales in less than 14 days, they get it done cleanly.  

Managing STRs involves guest communication, coordinating cleanings, promptly (like, within an hour or so) handling any maintenance issues - it's completely reasonable that their rate is higher than that of a LTR PM.
