NO MEN allowed on the property at all... completely fenced in with razor wire on top.. armed 24 hour guard.. that's the only way you can run those .. and believe me the owner was Very proud of what he had and did.. if your up for that style of management then by all means folks should go for it.but if they think for a minute that this is going to be just hand it to some PM and they are going to handle 200 huds in one building OUCH>. is my experience but again depends where it is.

Makes sure you don't get caught off-guard, saving you and your future buyers a ton of money YoY.

It is like bowling with bumper guards.

What do you think about the following AP story from The Register-Guard, Eugene, Oregon, USA?

Lesson learned always keep your guard up.

We have a property manager in town that manages it and handles the bookings and we also obtain bookings ourself by using vrbo.comThe property manager charges us 20% which i think is high, but they handle everything (including the phone calls from the security guards in the middle of the night if there is a wild crowd staying there).

I would also require a significant deposit to guard against unpaid rent.

For example, having safety camera within their premises, hire security guard, and paying tax for the city. 

Maybe a seller will let his/her guard down more easily with a woman and subsequently might be easier to be open and honest and create a win-win situation than a man might have with that same seller. 

Free security guard and security dog?
