The booking payout was for $1495.00. 

None were a match for me personally and many were not a strategy I wanted or too speculative (such as opportunistic strategy which is the riskiest strategy or investing in tertiary markets which also tend to be the first to go belly up when there is trouble etc).You probably actually want to look at your operating agreement to see what rights you have to books and records, etc. 

The only people who see my books are my CPA & lawyer.Don't like a companies prices?

Should I just jump into it and try to invest in my first property with not much experience besides the many investing books I've read?

rates are high, prices are high, good PMs and contractors are booked up and busy, and it's very tough to find good deals. 

it ignores (1) all the costs that have to be expended simply to process a transaction, and (2) the higher maintenance costs you will be incurring in that type of neighborhood. 

Build a strong team with experienced lenders, real estate agents, and property managers, and educate yourself through books and podcasts.

They manage listing and book guests.

I suggest listening to the BP podcasts and reading through the blogs and books they offer.

Do they suggest how to enter the transaction accurately or enter an adjusting Journal Entry.
