I wanted to know if one of our "house rules" could be that the guest had to have a certain star rating in order to rent from us.

However, in my opinion, a deal is a deal as long as the numbers look good.In regards to a property management company, I spoke to Orinthia at Lucky Star Property Managment https://luckystarproperties.com/ and they seem to have great reviews.

I recommend Blue Star Renovations, Charles Ortega

Its very competitive for employers looking for employees here in the heart of the Lone Star State.

They got home and wrote up a 1 star review because we didn't give them the full refund they wanted.  

While there is money to be made, something like 80% of the developers eventually go bankrupt.Probably not a place to start, but a place to finish when you've made a ton of money in other areas of real estate.Best way to learn is probably go to work for a successful developer in the area....Blue Star, Craig Hall, Trammell Crow, Hillwood (Ross Perot), Centurian American, Billingsley Company, Woodbine, someone like that.These are the people who have been doing it for years and have billions invested in North Texas.

After hearing about the BP podcasts, I finally decided to quit eating Doritos while watching Dancing with the Stars and take action!

Pretty big "drop off" from A to B.....I guess to make "A", as a landlord you have to do everything and anything the PM wants and be willing to pay any price for it.....and feel blessed and honored that you get to pay the PM their fee every month.....and not hold them accountable for or question ANYTHING...... which may be all fine and dandy IF.....IF...... your PM is also an A class ..... if they are a mid/low B or C, then you will get screwed in one way or another.Being a PM can be a really hard job....or it can be easy $$ if the units is basically on autopilot for huge stretches of time etcJust like ANY profession....there will be rock stars and there will be incompetent morons Until you prove to me you are a rock start, I guess I'm not making the A list.

Fortunately, I waited to send the request until the guest had already given us a 5 star glowing review, so at least our ratings were not affected.
