I see people without capital no experience or capital being taught to “help” desperate homeowners by tying up their property in a contract they have no way to successfully close without finding someone to pay more; costing the homeowner behind on their mortgage payments to lose valuable time that can easily lead to foreclosure; I see a program taught to students to take over a property ‘subject to”, leaving the seller unable to qualify for further mortgage financing, responsible for a loan secured by a property he no longer owns, and all held together by someone with 0 experience, limited or no capital, and no liability.  

I agree with you Michael Notbohm   I never get any response with i send email regrading HELP from them... they never respond  nor does anyone ever answer the phones either...However, I do like his software program... i just use his software and market to other buyers

Thanks for the response.

Several economic factors are contributing to this shift:Overbuilding: Some areas of Charlotte have seen significant overdevelopment, leading to an oversupply of rental units.Tighter Money: Rising interest rates and economic uncertainty have made tenants more cautious with their spending.Tenant Behavior: Many responsible renters are choosing to stay put rather than take on the cost and hassle of moving.What Does This Mean for Landlords?

The rental game is funny in that you want to responsible enough to always make rent, but not successful enough to easily afford buying a house.

General area and property class would be needed at a minimum for anyone to offer an intelligent response.

I am just starting out with a STR and found that VRBO is not very specific if they are collecting the tax and paying it to the State as a marketplace facilitator or am I responsible for this tax collection and payment ?

@Jason Malabute, Great response. 

No maintenance unless it's absolutely necessary and I make sure to charge the tenant if they are in any way responsible.
