I understand the downsides (well not all of it since I am inexperienced) but just like LTR I believe there are risks with any form of investment.Thank you so much for the reply, I see I didn't know it was mumbo jumbo I thought it was "professional" formal talk I wanted to give off the impression of some form of professionality to build a rapport but you're right I should be more straightforward but I want to first ask if they're open to corporate leasing because I will be hosting via my LLC and since I'm going to most likely advertise towards Travel nurses it wouldn't only be on airbnb but on different sites like furnished booking so I wanted to leave it a bit ambiguous so that it can start a conversation rather than have it limited to only being seen as just another airbnb pitch. 

If their process is just, ‘here’s the house, now it’s your problem,’ then they’re clearly not delivering what they advertise.

So if you have one unit advertised for rent on 6/1, another on 8/1, and another on 10/1, this will affect the depreciation  % on the tax return.Repair vs capex: capex would typically include all costs prior to the property being placed in service INCLUDING mortgage interest, insurance, property taxes, utilities, etc.

Include it in your advertising.  

In each category, note how much you are bothered or stressed on a 1 to 5 scale, with 1 = not bothered at all and 5 = stressed out: Pain Points Stress1 to 5 Pain Points Stress1 to 5 Unit turnover Exterior maintenance Advertising for available units Deferred capital expenditures Tenant screening rules Plumbing or electrical emergencies Tenant selection / discrimination rules Mortgage payments Documenting move-in conditions Bookkeeping and bill paying Documenting ongoing conditions Taxes and insurance premiums Dealing with tenant complaints Risk of late payments or non-payments Dealing with neighbor complaints Risk of property damage or vandalism Mold, termites and rodents Premises liability Interior maintenance Evicting tenants If your completed table has mostly 1s and 2s, then congratulations—you are a happy landlord!

Im back on bigger pockets after a long hiatus; trying to start up a STR from a owner occupied 2 family home with intent to advertise on furnished finder. 

We don't allow any "deal-making" in the forums, which includes advertising your services or properties, looking for partners, etc.

@Grayson Chao look up WAREI on Facebook as that is a big active group of local investors and a number of meetups get advertised there. 

I do believe we are superior though, just the market and economy are definitely wider than what's advertised.
