I do not know PL too much but I know it is the most popular for small unit count operators. 

This approach will help preserve your operating capital.

Find the REIA group for your areaAs Henry noted, post something specific for your area and tag your market.Get on Loopnet for your area and property type, reach out to the brokers that are listing deals and offer to take to coffee (they are often invested in deals too but you could ask for connections to other operators that might be getting started).And, again as Henry noted, each person you meet, ask them what other networking events they have attended that you can put on your list.

There needs to be someone similar to Always Marco on Youtube with the MLMs where you have someone exposing gurus who sell ******** courses.If you want to legitimately learn wholesaling, stop wasting money on ******** courses, and pay for such things as hiring an attorney to properly set up contracts, hire people to do inspections and appraisals, and hire CPAs to make sure that your business operates properly.

What I love about Baselane is that it was built BY real estate investors FOR real estate investors so it's really dialed in to what you're going to need in order to prepare your taxes, keep your books up to date and the more operational aspects of being an REI like tenant vetting and processing rent payments.

Long-term leases are less operationally complex and face fewer regulatory risks - more stable and scalable option.

It's just not how successful people operate.

Are you doing the work yourself or what is your plan on tackling the operations? 

Use STR-specific insurance to protect both parties and automate operations with platforms like Airbnb, TurnoverBnB, and PriceLabs.Taxable income from the STR must be reported, but you can deduct related expenses like cleaning, utilities, and furnishings.
