Hi Thanh - Managing a single STR can be manageable, but as your portfolio grows, hiring a vacation rental company can be a game-changer.

Name of the game for me is speed to move the contract.Currently I have a mass email marketing platform that works well but no one checks their email as much as their texts. 

The tax treatment in such cases may vary depending on specific circumstances.

If you're looking to buy bigger buildings that's another ball game altogether.My advice: what investing do you feel most confident and excited about?

So its a give & take game. 

The GC and the sub ended up sharing in the cost mostly (I think) because it was better than the finger pointing game that had already started, and realistically the attorney's were the only ones about to win...

There are plenty of varying job opportunities in the real estate industry.Ask yourself: What skills do you have?

Profit and loss will be a guessing game. 

Hello Tiffani Hollis, Congratulations on stepping into the realestate game.

I wouldn't be opposed to having a little skin in the game (closing costs, inspections, etc) I would be living there paying market rent and doing the improvements myself.
