I've been using Michael Blank's Deal Analyzer which works fine but there are some features that aren't available.

You are right, these don't attract families, although there is a very successful group called Gateway Vacation Home Rentals that are featured on VRBO and other sites.

I'm in a few facebook groups with cabin owners in blue ridge and my neighborhood, and many are saying their bookings are way down year over year (some with no bookings at all), apparently due to the increase in short termrentals available.That being said, if you do buy something, I'd make sure it has some features that will set your cabin apart.

You need a property with unique features worthy of the investment, I.E attached garage or partial finished ____ so you're not starting from scratch.

For better or worse, this feature is one of the ways that make DSCR Loans popular with investors since the qualification metrics are typically easier than other options4.

In the real estate SFH market, we observed multiple platforms like Zillow, Redfin, Realtor, Trulia, and Movoto - each offering unique user interfaces, features, and experiences. 

The important language in your reply is "on their behalf" -- redirecting the principal's funds is not acting on their behalf.Seems to me the smartest/easiest way to deal with lender escrow accounts is to have that feature eliminated from the loan ASAP in the subto process... preferably immediately after an annual tax disbursement reduces the account balance to a low point.But yes, when the principal dies so does the power.

If not, Foremost and Proper are both top notch STR insurers.

The marketing feature is extremely convenient, allowing you to post listings that automatically branch out to several other platforms, significantly increasing your exposure.Facebook marketplace/groups is also a great option.
