This approach avoids downtime and lets you start earning right away.Future Bookings:Taking over bookings can get tricky since Airbnb doesn’t allow direct transfers between accounts.

Ourcurrent approach involves identifying possible contact information for thelisted owners and calling multiple numbers, but this process is time-consumingand yields limited results.

Best regards, This approach is neutral and objective, focusing strictly on the criteria, and avoids discussing any specifics about the applicant’s personal situation.

Our logical process:1) Use Neighborhood rankings to narrow down area of city you want to invest in2) Focus on getting to know that Neighborhood(s), so you know the good & bad streets, block-by-block.3) Be patient to acquire properties on good streets that meet your buying criteria.Our rankings are done with a "bell curve" approach.

My dad used to manage other people's properties but eventually quit because the money wasn't worth it and he always ended up prioritizing their properties so as not to get any hassle from them.Another way to approach this might be to go all in on one project yourself and see how far that money gets you. 

Owner occ developments there is no value associated to the income approach so these props generally speaking will appreciate a lot more as the neighborhoods are much more desirable. builders the last thing they want to do is sell to investors if they are creating owner occupied communities.. rentals degrade the neighborhood and they will be sabotaging their own values to allow a bunch of investors to buy and rent out in their communities.So when you buy new builds keep in mind if its a build to rent community they will NOT appreciate like owner occupied neighborhoods.. might be best to find something already 3 to 5 years old where the stigma of renters dies down.. that would be best to protect your investment.

Kansas City is the “Heart of America” a transportation hub in the center of the country with a small city feel and the big city attractions of art, culture, fine dining, and professional sports teams.

Without having much info, I would need to know the financial situation of the 'close family' to determine a best approach.

So you have that approach as well.

@O Samuel AdekolujoHate to state the obvious, but your approach isn't working.Where is the problem, is the question:1) Your assumptions?
