I get get really good prices for home games, graduation, ceremonies, moving kids in and out etc.I get all these bookings from VRBO.

Does anyone have any advice on effectively setting up temporary battery-operated cameras on a long-term rental property to deter break-ins and squatters while rent-ready repairs are being made before a tenant moves in?

Question 2: Is it a good idea to put every piece of property into a separate LLC entity (1 for 1) or is it okay to put a few properties into the same LLC?

There are a lot of good posts on here so I would take some time and read the forum so you can hit the ground running.

I am doing it and getting 2 to 3 good leads each day. 

I personally like the buy-and-hold strategy and we help clients who share this long-term, wealth building mindset. 

And then hire a CPA if your problems are big enough-- a good problem.As for giving the 7-9/10s.

I've only invested in STRs and was looking to get into small multi-family but haven't seen anything that made sense in any of the markets I invest in so was curious where people were seeing good opportunities.  

You do need to partner with a good operator, and there's plenty of mediocre ones out there. 

I am looking into my STR options but from what I have learned this is a overflowing market in the area and the vacancy's are increasing so I may look into mid term and long term only.
