The most popular STR listings in my area have excellent interior design.  

The most important thing is to know the details of your local program like the back of your hand, then look for loopholes.Just to give you and the other BP'ers a deeper handle on why some TDR programs work and some don't, I just uploaded an excellent study on the topic to my FilePlace at http://www.biggerpockets.com/files/user/ChrisNewma...

@Drew Sygit had an excellent response regarding property class.

Most successful real estate investors could have excelled in a number of other fields.

@Jay Hinrichs @Jonathan Greene @Nicholas L.you have all helped me to really consider what type of challenge / path I want to get into, and all this information is excellent.

Or, is there a manual workaround like keeping track in a Google Sheet or Excel?  

I actually have a fee in my lease if a tenant wants me to physically pick up a payment.

I want to create a GMB profile for a market I invest in, but I don’t have a physical office address in that state.I’ve been looking into virtual address services like iPostal1, but I’m concerned it won’t be approved by Google since they seem to have strict rules about virtual or P.O. box-style addresses.

We are now starting to renovate the property and I am sure we will have some excellent experiences/learnings with this phase as well!

@Carini Rochester I agree with Greg but to be clear Good Cause does not require a landlord to provide free housing, it just forces them go through the onerous and expensive and lengthy process of actually going for non payment eviction instead of a hold over proceeding, when the landlord knows that a monetary judgement is worthless and just wants possession of their rental unit back so they can fix it back up and rent it again hopefully to a great tenant.Also the problem with all this is that from 2019 to now, landlords have gotten used to having economically or physically vacant units and have priced that risk in.
