Borrowing costs are nearing their highest point in decades and the municipal and state debt crises do not get nearly the attention of the federal government or deserve.Environmental Impacts : My assumption is that the entire toxic debris removal process will have to be managed by the Army Corp of Engineers X FEMA and other governmental agencies.

Also, be sure to check with the section 8 agency managing the tenants - sometimes if you pass on an additional cost like that they will no longer be eligible to live there if the rent and utilities exceed what they were approved for.

@Tom Dieringer After purchasing my first property in 2024, I acquired most of my short-term rental (STR) knowledge from The Short Term Shop, which included maintaining respectful communication with guests, keeping calendar availability up-to-date, and ensuring high-quality listings.When I initially began May of 2024, I opted to list my property exclusively on a single Online Travel Agency (OTA) - Vrbo.

Forget collections agency.

Which this is basically what I do now and immediately block and report.I really wish I knew where they got my cell phone number from...as attached to my rentals.. as I'd tell that agency to stop selling my data!  

Was curious if anyone had a final solution to help on the accounting side of everything.I use QBO for my other company (marketing agency) but hate it and it's not built for RE.

I also love the fact that I can help them build credit by reporting their rent to credit agencies.

Assign it to a collection agency on a contingency basis. 

I suppose I could combine the two ideas and live in a basement while renting out a 2 bedroom home to a traveling agency.
