Hello Erik, I really appreciate the response.

That person is responsible for anyone one else that comes into contact with your property.I suggest using a service like Mayistay.

They acted quickly and in your best interest to protect the property and your tenant. $2,000 is about the going rate in my market.2.

I have an opportunity to make a quick 30k in equity, but only cash flow around $25 — if I look at long term appreciation, that seems to make sense to me, but am I overlooking something and trying to make this work?

And the owner is very responsive to questions or issues (emailed him at night and received a reply within a few hours).  

You will quickly find, as you generate local person-to-person relationships, how many opportunities open up! 

Quote from @Dawn Roy: My response is not relevant to this transaction as it appears everything is going to work out with your lender. 

You can become free relatively quickly.

Responding quickly, like you do, definitely makes guests feel valued and reassured.I think the choice between automation and personal interaction depends a lot on the host's availability and scale.
