Quote from @Dereck Olson: Hi Nicholas,  Just a thought from the possible tenant's perspective, but filling out a prequalification form and/or providing personal information before they have even seen a place and know if they will be interested in living in the property might be a bit too much to ask. 

Property Selection & Setup: Are there certain property types, layouts, or amenities that perform best for STRs?

I'm willing to help this person in any way I can.

Affordability for the average person is essential, in my opinion. 

Finally got done building personal credit enough to seek pre-approval (as I have only just turned 21 years old).

I have been told that it could be better to save the FHA loan for a later property (Possibly a personal one), if you can put 20% down for a standard 30-year fixed loan.

I have arranged for Servpro to take a look at the property in person to give me a quote for this job.

I would ask them what services above and beyond the required broker services they plan to perform. 

Most tools give you a glimpse of past performance.

., the result is that we aren’t challenged when we need to take ownership if the borrower can’t perform.
