Now there are a lot of factors that can come into play but I'm not completely sure what you're asking here.

To me, the best play out there right now is to go with the smaller cabins. 

This agent of your didn't play any part in finding this property for you. 

Two factors at play here.1) STRs generally appraise as residential homes, not as businesses based on multiples. 

I am always cynical of those that post on here stating that they have X number of dollars, but I'll play along.2.

All you get is what you can export/import via CSV file:(We use Propertyware, have experience with Buildium, and have played with Appfolio and RentManager.Buildium is for smaller companies.The other three are tied, the differences being how much automation & customization you want to do.If you don't see yourself growing beyond 150 units, go with Buildium.If you're not very techy and plan to grow over 150 units, we'd recommend Appfolio.If you're techy and plan to grow over 150 units, we'd recommend Propertyware or RentManager.Of course, schedule some demos, take GREAT notes and them make your decision.FYI - there are MANY new options on the market, RentRedi, TenantCloud, Apartments.com, Hemlane, Rentec.

My question is where are the best resources I can find for scripts and role-playing?

You can see this play out in real estate as well.

Unit is available now -- just publish that and let the rest play out?

I have seen that play out as well.
