Quote from @Paul De Luca:Personally, I'm not a fan of enabling bad tenant behavior and in life you get what you tolerate.

This portal provides owners with full visibility into all reservations, allowing you to see detailed booking information, including rates and sources like Airbnb or Vrbo.Transparency is crucial for building a successful business, and platforms like Guesty enable real-time access to booking data, ensuring owners are always up-to-date with rates and reservation details.

@Greg ReeseMost small investors will benefit by having the LLC created in the state where the property is located at.Creating an LLC in a state like Nevada, Delaware, Wyoming may be better for the big players if items such as charging orders, business friendly case law, anonymity are important to you.However, be mindful that setting up LLC's in those states will add to your costs as you may have increased annual fees for annual LLC fees + registered agent fees.

I would love to meet any real players in the area who would love to pay it forward and help someone green like myself.
