Does this mean the realtor does not have exclusive rights to sell the property and the owner is probably advertising the same property on one of those by owner sites?

It’s about staying compliant, keeping tenants happy, and ensuring your investment performs at its best.

I have never used that site.

To help support that avatar, try and have on-site parking and ideally a place where a large work truck can be parked without issue (think fully decked out F-350). 

Quote from @Dinesh Nair: I am a Canadian investor with a US corporate entity- we closed on our first property and now working to find financing through a lender… however rates keep changing all the time.. is there a site to track rates ?

I’ve tried VRBO and Furnished Finder, but they didn’t perform well in my market.

Petersburg for over 30 years, I can attest that the last two big hurricanes caused significant damage, but they were the first in a long time.Condos and townhomes tend to perform well, especially if they're located on the Intracoastal Waterway or within 3-5 miles of the beaches.

Depending on the resort the 7/9 bedroom was in, yes, it will generally perform better than a 4 bedroom in any reputable resort, including solara.
