Oddly, Vrbo bookings nearly dried up and I get a steady stream of Airbnb leads despite the higher rate I set there.Unfortunately, by giving Vrbo a three-month exclusive head start, I missed revenue that could have been earned by listing on multiple OTAs from the onset.

This leads to state funded insurance which will be very costly because only those at highest risk will participate in it and if the losses continue, they eventually will need to get the money from someone (rest of people in california?) 

This being said, I don't believe we'll be able to meet the income requirements to qualify for a conventional.This leads me to believe hard money or private lender is more the only option to get my foot in the door, use my business to make repairs at very good rates, build some equity then refi once the balloon is due. 

I just reveled at a companys lead strategy that lead from the website directly to whatsapp.

It would be possible in other ways like a lot of hot client leads but anything other than that will probably be specific to what that agent needs.

Do I receive video of my pre and post make ready?

Their videos and "You got paid!"

The biggest issue is that forgetting to assign a location or choosing the wrong one can mess up your balance sheet, leading to inaccuracies.

You are rushing and that can lead to a first property mistake.

Ha, huge fan, I just made a video about the book from Chris Voss!
