I'd want to know more information to make a good recommendation, but it sounds like you would have a strong argument if everything else is the same except for location.MP tasksTenant Management:Showing properties, screening applicants, and preparing leasesWelcoming tenants and addressing inquiriesCollecting rent and managing evictionsProperty Maintenance:Cleaning, repairs, and inspectionsAdministrative & Marketing:Supervising staff, purchasing supplies, and promoting rentals (ads and website)

You may have a recourse if the listing agent falsely claimed that the unit was permitted.

Quote from @Jay Martin: Has anyone heard of or used Bluebird lending they have dscr loans, etc. opened in 2018 in Philly, lend in a bunch of states, but hard to find info on them. have not heard of them but based on the website appear legit.

You have to go to their website and set up for a demo and go through the process that way.  

How do they know if this is an owner stay that you blocked on your website, and it pushed over to Vrbo?

@Frank Newsome the profile you started here on BP yesterday, doesn't show where you are from.So, not sure how you picked those 4 markets, other than they are all in Michigan.We're in the Metro Detroit market, not the other 3.Our website has a map showing all the cities in Macomb, Oakland & Wayne Counties, that make up Metro Detroit. 

it’s safe to assume you don’t have your business fully set up yet.Let me ask you:Do you have a website?

I also don't like that they're not transparent with their pricing or what the product does on their website.
