I realize this comes with the STR business but if I'm going to continue to use VRBO I need to find away to attract the "good" guests and minimize the bad ones.

Continuing to work on Second home for our Caretaker and Plantation manager to live in. 

For instance, if he paid $40,000 to buy a house and sold it for $80,000 with $10,000 down, he could keep $10,000 in reserve  and tap into it to hire attorney, file eviction case , remove defaulting buyer/tenant and continue paying off investor loan (if he used PML to buy that house) while looking for the next buyer to sell it.

(During this whole time I continue to market/show the unit.

I hope my entry into real estate will continue this trend.
