These platforms typically have billing policies where you pay a per unit fee per month to the software and you get regular updates and support each month.There are a number of low-cost platforms available that are able to offer you a lower price by passing along some of the costs to your tenants (payment processing fees, applications, tenant screening, etc).

This is why its difficult if not impossible to sell a STR for any more than property value - the market perceives that the additional profitability of a STR doesn't belong to the STR operator - it belongs to the App platform.If you can migrate to "independence", i.e. self generated business, then not only will you have a long term sustainable business, but a good chance to sell the STR for a substantial premium to real property value. 

Hi Everyone, I own and self manage 2 of my own properties here in Western NC.
