Thank you James for sharing your experience.

If any experience realtors can assist me, by given me their opinion on what could possibly be the best choice, I would greatly appreciate it. 

To avoid going through the same poor experience, keep reading.Even if someone gives you a referral here, do NOT make the mistake of assuming that the PMC will meet your expectations, just because they met the expectations of the referral source.In our experience, the #1 mistake owners make when selecting a Property Management Company (PMC) is ASSUMING instead of CONFIRMING.It's often a case of not doing enough research, as they don't know what they don't know!

That’s not a great experience, and just makes it harder on the little guy trying to get ahead in life.  

I probably should have all 3 above go ahead and fill out applications instead of just waiting the next day of so for the student's info to come.Thank you so very much for your thoughts and experience with this. 

As @Timothy Riley experience, your end may still be several months away.I would offer to rent a truck for them to move if they moved this weekend.

I have an opportunity to purchase a 3/3 there completely remodeled for around 175k..Branson has 9 solid months a year of rentable opportunities and I am just wondering if anyone has experience here.Thanks!

I also like the idea of BRRRR once I get more experience in real estate.

Does anyone have any experience with this program, good or bad, that they can share? 

My advice - find a legit mentor that may partner with you as cohost is your first property, willing to share knowledge and you absolutely know for a fact they hv experience in the airbnb space with their own properties; gather info on internet, buy a couple of books - all the information is already out there.
