@Chantelle LewisRecommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

Given all your data on historic pricing, average length of stay, and pricing at the 25th percentile, please let us know if you're able to push up the VRBO chain to speak to a Supervisor (or equivalent) and have them verify the data that supports your position.I can share that calling the VRBO support line: 877-202-4291, identifying yourself & property ID, and requesting a Supervisor politely and repeatedly, can lead to different outcomes.

thanks for your time and help rent to retirement works directly with build to rent developers like us around the country once they are framed up. you are buying properties pretty much at market value but with a hand holding. you can work directly with a builder or directly with them. they are just an intermediary. they take 5% on what we make as a builder but have a large list of investors and a systemized approach to selling new builds. if you want to get a better deal I'd recommend directly contacting builders and building it yourself. fly to the market. spend 2 days, tour new builds, get a feeling for how it's going. if your builder isn't building multiple at a time then I wouldn't recommend working with them. rent to retirement is a well oiled and well run machine. they've had their ups and downs with dozens of transactions in florida but modified their process. they are well known and established and transparent. if you have a more specific market and feel confident in your ability to vet deals try it out. happy to talk more my info is in my signature. we work directly with them to sell new builds and no organization is perfect but I have good things to say about them as a builder and potential build to rent developer that sells build to rent triplexes and single family homes through them to end buyers in California like the Bay Area, Los Angeles, and San Diego 

This phenomenon not only poses significant risks to property owners and managers but also threatens the integrity of rental transactions.

Reqauest a refund from them verbally and in writing and  continue to follow up and  go up the  management  chain if needed . 

I think it should appraise for at least 600k and think 650k is reasonable.It’s fully renovated and fully leased for $5,200/month.I’ve reached out to banks to see if I could use cross collateral to be my equity contribution but at least so far they’ve also wanted 10% cash.I’d like to avoid coming out of pocket with cash.I was wondering if you had creative ideas on how I might be able to get this financed 💗

Based on how I am reading your summary it sounds like there is solid equity in the 2-family in order for a bank to cross-collaterize assets. 

When in Doubt for Florida, look them up on Sunbiz.org, search by Company name, then cross reference with owner name.You go deeper and check Civil Records for Lawsuits. 

I've tried a couple - truepeoplesearch, white-ages, property radar, leadsherpa, batch leads...Some services are better than others, but it is a numbers game and you also can cross check between different platforms.

But I think you are asking for a standard timeline for a basic transaction @Kiryl Ulanovich.
