Are there specific steps or systems you follow to ensure it’s done correctly?

I was following this post so disappointed no one has any specific recommendation.

@Chris Seveney While I'm not at that level to be able to provide personal experience I will follow to see what others respond with.One question I would have is, 'What is your current loan volume today?'   

If you didn’t hit some of your goals, analyze what caused you to not achieve them to ensure you don’t make the same mistakes again the following year.

When a seller makes claims and promises about what they sell (no matter what the product is), and it's proven that they have not followed through on their claims/promises, the buyer has rights. 

Post on Craigslist seems like another 'guru' but I cannot put my finger on it, he seems to be following Cherif method, not sure what to make of it.

Start with networking, go to all events you can and follow up with who you meet.

For their three-year, 12% option they give an example of a $1M investment with the following preferred returns:- Without compounding: $360,328.77- With compounding: $431,237.45Taking 12% disbursements over 3 years on $1M would be $120,000 per year, or $360,000 over 3 years.

I did not realize one of my units had the 7-night minimum but that currently is a requirement in my city, I do not always follow it.

My questions are;Do I have to take expenses as a deduction in a year in which they occurred even if I do not get income until the following year  I have other rental property, but my taxable income on them after expenses is only gonna be about $5000 So is there anyway to roll over expenses to the next year since I cannot deduct the remaining 15,000 and expenses against my W-2 income?
