Then you can read a more in-depth book like The Book On Rental Property Investing by Brandon Turner or The Unofficial Guide to Real Estate Investing by Spencer Strauss.2.

Most of the BP guests are pushing a course or book or something, so they appear on the podcast and then disappear instead of hanging out in the forums to help others.

@Ming HuangRecommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

I didn't expect that audience to go for what is essentially a hotel room, but more than 1/3rd of our bookings come from there.  

Airbnb claims that setting up a "photo tour" on your listing will increase bookings by 6 percent, for example.  

I don't mind the organization side of things in terms of booking, etc. but would not have the ability to physically turn the property over. 

I have 0 experience managing STR properties, but lots of experience using Airbnb from my travels 😅 I am halfway reading Avery Carl’s book on STR.

Quote from @Evan Polaski: @Chris Seveney, I hadn't looked at any details on this offering into now.Things to consider from their own marketing:Operating partner has done all of 10 flips.Their entry price point is a price that I would expect any truly experienced flipper to be able to take down very easily on their ownTheir historic IRR, while high by MF standards, is average, at best, from my experience with flips, and it is unknown if this is net to LP returns.I have flipped homes myself, so am not their target investor.  

As a reminder, this was not just a standard break-up, but a toxic-split which led to the brothers not speaking to each other in the years that followed (in addition to lawsuits being filed).

Most standard leases have check, or cash as options as a default so tell him that's his only options if he doesn't want to pay that way then he has to move on with a loss of his deposit.
