No instant booking.

I did have instant book turned on with Vrbo and Airbnb pre COVID and never had any issues.I turned off instant book and am staying full so if it ain't broke...

One thing to note is that if you can get a cash flowing rental with instant equity at say 80-90k for this one  it doesnt make much sense to not take it.

Lots of great info on the site…and the forums/ability to get near-instant feedback from experienced (and generous with their time) investors is fantastic. 

We have a 3 day minimum stay and do not do instant bookings.

While receiving $43k in instant equity is AWESOME (congratulations on getting such a good deal) we would need to know what % of equity you have it in to determine if it's even possible. 

@Mike Dorneman I'm new so let me reword what you said and you tell me if I'm saying it rightYou HELOC asap and don't draw on it until you need cash, in this way you don't have to pay interest until necessaryYou use as a bank that allows you to refi to arv value to pull equity and instantly repay HELOC.

I was *instantly* aware of the red hot real estate market on arrival (as soon as I tried to rent something lol) but hadn't considered it an option while there...but anything can happen, as my Dad likes to say.  

Kinda nice knowing that every dollar of principle paid off is instantly available when lightning strikes.

For my post, I was addressing the ability to instantly increase your cash flow for free over refinancing at cost if that is important to you.
