@Mindy PerryReally doesn't matter what software you pick as long as it has the features you want.Two biggest challenges with ALL software:1) None are perfect, so deal with the tradeoffs2) Most users rarely put in enough time to really understand how to utilize the software.

I’m brainstorming ideas on how I can market myself to potential mentors in the STR game in order to gain experience.

Currently, I have a weekly check in with my current contractor, but alot of time it is a chasing game.

BP has no reason to improve the search feature, which they could fix in a heartbeat.

The core principles in The Book on Rental Property Investing still hold up, but higher interest rates definitely change the game.

Look, we were for most part playing a game of American Football for a long time.

If you are investing for the long game, I say go for it - we have to be creative in this market to make things pencil. 

Doing STR is a completely different game.

If your target tenant is looking for a car-less lifestyle then you’re going to be competing with units close-in so you’ll have to win on price or features to get them out to 82nd.
