You’ll need a decent printer, quality paper, envelopes, and time to process everything, plus the patience for repetitive tasks.Outsourcing, while more expensive, saves a ton of time and ensures a professional look.

I also cherish spending quality time with my wonderful fiancée, Miranda.I can’t wait to connect with all of you!

The big problem here is if the quality of work is no good.

In my market it seems the higher-quality renters want interaction.

@Tyler Gilpin When you say "does pretty well", is that more of a commentary on the quality of the tenant (aka "lack of damages to your property") or the timeliness of payments (either via HUD or the tenant's portions)?

Quality contractors already have their plate full . 

Are their listings detailed with good-quality photos?

Throw in some extra costs like moving expenses, professional photos (a cost the STR PM may also need to pay depending on the quality of the existing photos), renter's and lessor's insurance and a listing on furnishedfinder to round out some of the start-up costs.

Looking back 10 years this complex had dues increase for most years at around 3% but for 2023 it was 18% and 2024 19%. 30+ year old complexes really start wearing down and many times were not the highest quality construction.

LOTS to talk about in Calgary as quality multi-family deals are being snapped up quickly, multiple offers on handyman specials, and parts of the city is experiencing Sellers Market, while the CIty of Calgary has decided to continue their major capital reinvestment projects, so there will be emerging areas soon!
