It's easy for me to integrate it into my current property and manage it at once.

Additionally, due to our integrated status with VRBO, our homeowner clients are not charged an 8-11% service fee for bookings.  

He has a huge social media fan base on Instagram now.

Our plan is:-Increase social media posts about what we're doing (operations and acquisitions) on Instagram, Facebook and Youtube-Go to real estate meetups (not sure about which ones) and just expose people to what we're doing/get them following our social media Anything else anyone would recommend? 

The common ground that needs to be present is you need to 100% trust in your partners honesty, integrity, and work ethic.

Could be cold calling, open houses, door knocking, social media, friends/family, etc.

Would something you see on social media be enough to question their integrity?

You can call and email from the software, process payments, send leases, integrate with an online resident portal, track renters insurance, receive maintenance requests,  and the list goes on.

I have tried social media platforms and tried knocking on the neighbors door on my last pass through.

This can include staging, professional photos and tours, maybe a unique website, boosted postings on social media, or whatever you come up with that sets you apart.
