Apparently a child tested positive for lead.

I'm a member of GaREIA, they have a google group where experienced local inveztors trade tested (and mostly reliable) contractors, legal helps, strategy.   

This past summer was our first year, so to test the market we had a 3 day minimum, and we filled every weekend with 3-5 day stays easily but we had holes in the midweek.  

Once you have a shortlist, sign up for an account with each one and test them extensively to see how they function.

Buy a few leads—start with a small test amount—and assess their quality for yourself.

I also leverage a tool called Intellihost which helps with pricing strategy and conduct A/B Testing with listing changes.The listing description seems to be just a paragraph.

That will completely break my self-sufficiency test. 

I did a search on vacant properties and then did a drive-by test yesterday.

This year we had a heat pump cleaning, testing refrigerant charge (didn't need any added) and a capacitor replacement, bill was $157.05, factor I consider are the age of the existing unit, if it needed a charge, potential leak, cost of refrigerant (over the years there have been many varients of the type of refrigerant). 

A couple of thoughts specific to condo investing:1) Be sure to include the condo fees into your cashflow analysis, and budget for potential assessments as projected capital expenses2) Make sure the condo association is solvent - a good litmus test is whether or not the units are approved for FHA financing3) Make sure the condo association rules/regs allow for rentalsGood luck!
