I don't know how the really big players stomach it.Something else I failed to mention was how the PM's are also tacking on fees on top of rent to extract even more money from our tenants. 

I believe Ryan mentioned this above.

It is worth mentioning that there are indeed investors.

Some say it increases bookings, while others mention concerns about damage and additional cleaning costs.

Not to mention they wrote of over $300k worth of taxes for me utilizing a cost segregation study. 

As mentioned above, Portland has more restrictive rules than most of the state of Oregon.

Thanks so much for the mention, @Jonathan Greene!

HOWEVER; if you aren't going to use your full last name, then it's important to upload a pic to your profile (which you have) The reason being, when someone has a common name, with an initial and you are trying to @mention them, if you have a list of 5 David R's with the stock icon, it's impossible to know which is the correct one. 

As someone else mentioned, make sure you don’t go overboard with the updates.

I'll look up the group you mentioned.
