That's just wasting time and energy right now. 

All you have to do is look at the better business bureau complaints and the continuous instances of predatory billing practices to know how much they care about their customers.The 5 star reviews are a sham.

I don't think there's any one platform that gets gold stars across the board. 

One of their so called instructors from one of the training sessions asks the students to go to the five star hotels, or go play golf, or go horse riding, or go hang out at the high end night clubs for the sake of fund raising.

You can also split the difference by looking at the historic energy usage for the property and setting that as a utility 'cap.'

For example, incorporating energy-efficient solutions and smart home technology has been a game-changer in similar markets, especially when paired with features like office spaces that cater to remote workers.As for potential add-ons, corporate housing partnerships are a brilliant suggestion!

Educating yourself on how to offer 5-star remote management would be ideal as well!

They are floating marketing fishermen, and the stars of this pool are the Gurus who preach about motivated sellers/leads program/other catchy name.

Below are some actionable steps I plan to take after identifying a market:- find a rock star agent by referral and/or calling brokerages and asking to connect with their top producing agents- find a rock star contractor by referral and/or yelp- have control over construction by setting per diems to incentivize contractor to finish the project on time, within budget, and with good quality- leverage my rock star agent's time to check up on the construction process (checks and balances)- hire independent handymen/inspectors to check up on the construction process for a flat fee (checks and balances) There's competition everywhere, you won't escape that in any market. 

You could create an operating agreement granting one of you the powers - but it is a fair amount of energy/time/activity for someone to manage and find deals.
