@Steven Hamilton III reached out by email to arrange a consultation with you about the information below, but I also post it here in case you want to reply publicly so the response may also help others.

Best decision I've ever made. 4-6% average annual appreciation rate, stable job growth, population growth, drivable to the Bay Area, close to Lake Tahoe, no state income tax, 4th lowest property taxes in the Nation, much more landlord friendly than CA, land constrained meaning limited supply, etc. 

Feel free to pm me or email. 

Selling to the wrong buyer can become more expensive than carrying the home for slightly longer.I will buy my bath/kitchen fixtures at a plumbing supply house and not a big box store.

No worthwhile discussion can occur without copies of all documents being supplied.  

--reach out and thank them upon getting the booking and ask if they have any questions--send a "Welcome" email or automated message during the week prior to arrival--reach out the day after arrival to ask how everything was the first night and ask if there is anything that the property needs--reach out at the end of the stay (that morning or within 24 hours) and ask how everything was, anything to improve, anything to add to the house and then offer an incentive for returning guests.My 2 cents,Mike Absolutely stay in your place as Mike said.You will see things the cleaners will never let you know about.We stayed in our PF will putting up the Christmas decorations and found a cracked plastic shelf in the fridge. 

- We've got an owner we're about ready to terminate because we email them information that they refuses to read and always wants us to call them and spend hours talking about it.

If they really want to pay the $10k for leads that we supply.

Keep one mailing address and opt to receive digital notice to one same email account that you monitor.

If I am reading correctly, they are simply supplying the money for the partnership.
