I have much to say about this topic, but here are some key points.- The support is great.

Here's the original post: https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/517/topics/1222034-pote...Thanks to @Michael Plaks for highlighting that the 12/31/2024 deadline and the enforcement and the penalties are back, as of 12/23/2024!...

Thanks for all the feedback, it's been great to see the macro and micro considerations on this topic!

Circling back on this topic, curious on others' strategies who are having success on Booking.com concerning how you're handling payments.

I suggest you enter private money goldmine in search botton at top right of the screen and read the previous posts....here is one that gives good perspective as well as a link to legitimate private lenders.http://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/92/topics/1488...

Every investor has their own path, and hearing different perspectives will only enrich your journey.Challenges in Real Estate Investing:Finding deals: In competitive markets, it can be tough to find good deals that make sense financially.Capital and financing: Finding funding, especially as a new investor, can sometimes be challenging.Dealing with tenants: Managing rental properties and dealing with tenants can be tricky, especially with issues like late rent or property damage.Market risk: Real estate markets fluctuate, and external factors (like economic shifts or local development projects) can impact property values.I’d be happy to continue the conversation if you want to dive deeper into any of these topics!

Out of topic but how do you handle guest resolution on your direct bookings? 

Also, I just came across this post: https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/921/topics/1227533-is-n...I have no idea who this person is or how accurate, but you may want to investigate if you are thinking about the UK market.
