Quote from @Garrett Kroll: Our property management business recently reached 1,000 total reviews across our 18-property portfolio, and we’ve been fortunate enough to maintain a 4.99 average rating across all OTAs.I wanted to share some strategies we focused on that helped us reach this milestone.

Clean the place up, then rent it at market rate to tenants that know how to maintain a home.Any time you have a lease violation, you should follow a simple process.

I know people who currently have that, it started a generation ago and probably ends next generation, it's hard to maintain this more than a couple generations because the politics, religion and underlying values can't hold across hundreds of extended family members.The same goes for business/way of life.

Ron, Thank you for the input. i like the car check thats something quick and easy to see as a indicator of how they maintain their lives/ belongings. 

You have to understand your rights and maintain control of the situation. 

This property has become a standout in my portfolio, delivering significant equity growth and consistent high returns, while also maintaining flexibility for long-term rental opportunities in the future.

After minor renovations to enhance its appeal, it has consistently performed well on the short-term rental market, particularly on Airbnb, where it maintains a high 90% occupancy rate.

Only those that legally existed prior to new Codes can be maintained, replaced, etc.

If values of real properties continue their long term increases, then owning more property even if it means having paid higher prices will turn out to be a winning strategy, provided the buyer is able to maintain ownership through periods of possible negative cash flow and or refinancing necessity. 

This way, you can still enjoy the advantages of real estate investing while maintaining your current lifestyle and commitments.
