I run a meetup in the Berwyn area that is an affiliate of the Neighborhood Building Owner's Alliance.

.* And for low performing properties one of the features i really like is you can make a change to your listing - lets say update the property description, log it, then see if this makes any chances in your placement.I'm not affiliated with them but think its a great tool to turn around poor performing properties - assuming the STR is competitive compared to your competition.I agree with Henry that you can probably do better self-managing IF you have the time and appetite for dealing with guests and learning the dos and don't....Heres is the turnaround of one of our Floridas STR that was lagging - now back to near the top on the first page.  

"The Fair Market Value can be determined on the basis of the average of the two appraisals.In all cases, each appraiser selected by a party, must be an “MAI” qualified and licensed appraiser or must otherwise be a member in good standing of the local AIREA, and must not be affiliated with either party.

Yes indeed mate.I probably would have fixed the rate also but "underwritten" the deal from a worst case rate scenario like I would do with SFH if financing.I'm not versed in large multifamily deals and would love to learn more.I think I could really do some "damage" in the field because I own and run a property management company and we run a tight ship that's very well optimized from an automation aspect and affiliate fee structure standpoint.So my bottom line for example buying a 50 or 100 unit would be much safer/higher due to in-house PM and "working" the margin.

They do have affiliates for both of those things.

Some are non-profit and are affiliated with National REIA. 

HEre is a list of a few of them.Please note I am not affiliated in any way with any of the groups other than that I have attended some of their meetings/presentations.

She works nationwide and I have no affiliation with her other than knowing she's an amazing asset to helping you narrow down your strategy.
