I think its an industry ripe for disruption.

Our tenants' lease in Fairhope #1 had another 8 months on it when we moved to the area, so we had planned to rent Fairhope #2 for a year and use the 4 month time frame between the end of their lease and the end of ours to make a few improvements to it so we wouldn't have to disrupt our lives while living in it. 

What you decide to do depends on a lot of factors including if you are using financing (may want to minimize disruptions to cash flow), if the current tenant is at market or below market rental rates and a whole host of factors, too many to list here.The one thing I would not do is ask the existing tenant and open ended question like "what would you like fixed?". 

It can be a bit disruptive for permanent residents since the travelers are in and out.

@Willem Young  yes you would think saving a home for someone and letting them live in it as a renter and disrupting their lives would be a benefit right ?

I'm here to network with investors, agents, and anyone else who thinks traditional property management should be disrupted.  

Talk to the owners of those properties best  you can without being disruptive.  

Please post your thoughts on the following quote:"At a recent conference, rising inequality, new technology that replaces jobs, or neuroscience, or other new developments that could be disruptive to our way of life were discussed.Consumer confidence indices tend to focus mostly on the next six months to a year, as if that dominated people's thought.

the reason many company's cater to specious political issues is that special interests are vocal and disruptive, whereas the majority keeps quite and doesn't want to get involved.

Haven't seen the inside yet due to not disrupting the tenants.
