I’m very glad to be here to read the blog &  continue learning from pros like you all!

Hi Richard, Do you currently own/operate LTRs?

Operated as an executive high-end rental for 2 years and cash flowed nicely while rented.

Does anyone have any advice on effectively setting up temporary battery-operated cameras on a long-term rental property to deter break-ins and squatters while rent-ready repairs are being made before a tenant moves in?

Is it Leasing, Property Management, Vendor Management, Operations, Finance, Accounting... 

Your decision to prioritize effective support and comprehensive features, even if it means higher costs, seems reasonable, especially when it's critical for your business operations.

Over time, rents may increase, improving your cash flow, and you’ll gain equity and valuable experience managing tenants and property operations.

If the tenant was placed by the Manager, and wishes to extend or renew their lease, andthe owner wishes to cancel this agreement to continue on with the existing tenant, there will bea fee of $800 + GST.

The operator may trade off the longer term benefits to keep a high quality tenant in place.

I think if you have a little extra time, operating a smaller STR business can pick up some good income.
