The people that run these companies usually come from an "investment banking", real estate, or construction background.

Airbnb claims that setting up a "photo tour" on your listing will increase bookings by 6 percent, for example.  

I would have set aside much more if i knew what a pain that would be.

I'm an investor (STR properties), realtor, and own a construction company near Texas A&M in the Bryan / CS area but travel to the 903 frequently to visit family.

We have a property management company and real estate brokerage. 

The macroeconomics are on fire here - population growth, job growth, and companies moving and developing here.

I know the larger companies around here were charging up to 25% but it will probably vary no matter where you are at.  

Sights are set on all types of REI, but this will be a great start for us.I have been in the mortgage business for over 20 years.

Tried to get title search but it’s too late it seem and title company does not guaranty anything after charging $500.

thanks for your time and help 1st off, full disclosure here, Rent To Retirement advertises their properties on my Investment Properties For Sale Show, so I am not a totally unbiased opinion and it's only fair that I tell you this up frontHaving said that, outside of running my show for people like them, I also own a property management company in Northeast Ohio and have worked with 1,000's of out of state investors over the years.I say all of that to say this, the overwhelming majority of negative reviews I have seen on them are very similar to a lot of negative experiences investors have with my property management company and others like it that I've worked with.
